The opening paragraph gives the reason why Linux is still not at the same level as windows:

“ A few months and several headaches later…”

Additionally, the first comment I read is very positive, yet it also gives insight into the same situation.

These are the words of someone that hasn't tried to install Windows on a recent machine. There's plenty of headaches there too.

I have, actually. It was a several-click process with few to no headaches (I don’t recall any in the last several installs I did).

Given how many people here are saying that Windows is great after you do enough tweaking it does not seem very different.

Yet it is. I don’t see myself or anyone in my family effortlessly choosing and setting up a Linux distro without outside help.

Windows on the other hand is easy to install and set up. I’d argue most people in my family can do this and I’m the only one that is technically inclined.
