Cew27 - you seem to be missing my point. It's the fact that if they want to install software they have to get the proper package or use yum/apt-get, whatever, something an average consumer will find overly complicated and confusing.
If it was up to me all PC newbies should use Linux just so they get some computer sense.

I absolutely resent people who fool with Linux for a week or so and then get on the forums and roast it. The truth is, I can no longer enjoy the computing experience with Windows. I have many times as much software available to me as a Windows user and it is all free. I also have control of my system. Not Bill gates or Steve Jobs. And all that crap about adware and spyware. It's like living in the past.
