You may be right, John Q Public may not be ready for linux. There again, does John Q Public configure his own dual monitors or fix his own sound problems in a windows enviroment? Ya I could be wrong but the average Joe has someone else do that for them. They are called administrators.
If a company, lets say 100 employees, wanted to convert to linux completely, then Xandros is a good client OS. If you can configue one computer with sound, than the others are easy.
What about computers that are sold preconfigure with an OS on them. Does linux have to be installed after you buy a computer? No. And when John Q Public buys a new sound card, does he install and configue it himself? In most cases they let the store do that for them.
John Q Public and the average Joe is ready for linux, and myself will be glad to show them how easy it is!
