Yeah if you want any semblance of anything working 'out of the box', arch is just not for you.

There is no default install on arch. There is not even an installer. There's just the command line on a live system and then you create the partitions and put all the files in place automatically.

It's really great that arch exists but it's just not for everyone.

Arch has an installer. It's had one for years. It was completely broken for a long time but they released a new working version back in April. Unfortunately most people thought it was a joke since it was released on the first of April.
