I use Windows for my main machine and have for a few years. Whenever I have to do anything with Ubuntu - helping my friend set something up or get a program running or something - I am shocked at how bad the experience is. Constant terminal commands and lack of intuitive GUI. Never-ending updates and dependencies. The user experience is just so bad. It sucks that you can't pay more for a version that isn't the hostel backpacker equivalent of an operating system. |

Believe it or not, people like that. I think linux users, for the most part, still recognize computers are tools and like all tools there is a learning curve. We shouldn't dumb things down to make it less "hostel" and there's no practical way to provide all of the power of a command line in a GUI. And intuition is very subjective. Intuitive to me is when I think "there must be some way to do X" and sure enough there's a command I can run in terminal or a file I can edit to do it.
