    Linux learning curve is definitely steeper than windows - at least for ‘the basics’.

    Simply because of terminal commands. Thats a lot of info to learn and maintain just to do ‘basics’.

    Yeah you can search and find what you need to do, but again that’s a lot of work for someone who just wants things to work.

    Windows pretty much holds your hand to get the ‘basics’ up and running.

      What does this “the basics” consist of then? I would’ve thought it was something along the lines of installing the OS, connecting a printer, installing common software (productivity suite, games, etc), setting a desktop theme you like and browsing the web, but none of that requires you to learn how to use the terminal.
