But not all comp users were born with a complete knowledge of every imaginable *nix system. Newbies, in general, use Microsoft stuff. We were all newbies once. (I consider myself a power user, but the real "3l337 h4x0rs" would likely still say to me, "y0u c1u313ss LUS3R!!"...hoo boy, flames, here I come.) It's an inescapable, and somewhat painful, part of many a Linux afficianado's past: Most of us had to start with something. Maybe, then, in this context, we can euphemically compare Microsoft to toilet training, rather than the usual comparison to the products thereof.

I see your point here and I agree.
