Linux is a fine operating system -- but don't expect it
to be eaiser than Windows.
In fact for beginners, part of the point of Windows is
to "hide the gory details". Note: This can actually make
Windows more irritating for experts as they have to sift
through the obsfucation. (Similar to the original Macintosh.)
Linux can be made easy. Windows can be customized.
Both require effort and study.
