    The fact that people HAD to learn to use Windows, too. It’s just in the past and appears easy because they already can. If a person used computers with Linux from the start, it would be as easy for them as for Windows users.

      That, and that practically all courses that taught (teach?) how to use a computer, use Windows, MS Office, and other Windows-based software.

      There was some nonprofit (I think it was One Laptop Per Child) that gave laptops with Linux preinstalled, Sugar for elementary school students and I think Ubuntu for highschool students.

      My youngest niece at least knows her way around Ubuntu.
