And dependency hell that exceeds.dll hell...
Dependancies are resolved by programs like apt-get. Apt-get is available on red hat nowadays (and probably mandrake). And a very inconsistent and often difficult application install process...
its pretty consistant - use rpm's for everything if you want to. If not./configure ; make ; make install normally does the trick. And applications for general consumer and business use rather than just for developers...
I'm a general consumer and i never use any other platform other than at/for college (vb is part of the course And driver / peripheral issues...
unless people play with random hardware (which office workers etc do not, you dont get hardware problems - just check before you buy/download
And remember, in the corporate world, the only people who are allowed to install are trained anyway - they can fathom out how to compile something - companies don't install new software every week, so its not as if there would be much research involved.
