Whatchoo talkin bout Willis? Linux is better, more stable, powerful, reliable, and configurable, sure, but it's always been harder to use than Windows.
Right now, you still have to be willing to *teach yourself* a lot of what you need to know. Those wanting a push-button operating system (including many in this thread) should stick with Microsoft. If you want a better OS and you're willing to RTFM (HOWTOs, O'Reilly, etc.), then welcome aboard.
