    Linux really isn’t a tech nightmare anymore, even my extremely technophobia partner can manage to use Linux now and most programs have a GUI so you can pretty much avoid ever opening the terminal if you really don’t want to.

      “Use” and “configure” are 2 different things.

      I doubt your partner set up her own Linux installation.

        But she also wouldn’t be able to install and set up windows. What I’m saying is if Linux was pre installed like windows is, most people could manage to use it without much of an issue.

          Does Linux come with a super easy installation Wizard even a technophobe can follow? Cause that is necessary as well for preinstalled computers.
