That's funny, my wife and I find using Linux just that easy, switch on the computers, fire up a browser and email client, and it all just works out of the box. :)

Same here. I put in the installation disk, booted, followed some prompts, and the OS was up and running in less than an hour. Works right out of the box.

The thing is, if I *want* to go digging around and get myself into trouble, it's very simple to do. Linux gives me the choice - easy to use, or dangerous toy that will blow up in my face as I boldly go where no (wo)man has gone before...
