Theory: Every time I try to install the same broken package, it fails! I've tried hundreds of times!
I disagree. There are plenty of easy to use distros out that replace windows in every way. Linux Mint is a favorite of mine. I install it on Grandma's Machine with Open Office, show her how to export .pdf, and never get another phone call.
Windows is for teen age boys who want to get viruses and the latest game.
Mac is for people with too much money, and too fancy of a haircut.
I hold very few opinions. I hold information based on observation and fact. If you wish to disagree, please use facts.
