THANK YOU. You're absolutely right. Many Linux advocates just refuse to play the hand they are dealt. Fact is everyone and their grandma's puppy uses Windows. And they have much better things to do (at least in their own sense) than sitting in front their machine all day compiling drivers or setting up WiFi.
To them using what just works IS SMART AND TIME EFFICIENT. Believe it or not, for many people probing their girlfriend is easier for them than probing for hardware devices.
Think about it. What is easier to change: the software or the people using it?
