On the other hand, MeDearOldMum and GreatAunt have been happy Linux users for many years now. Since moving them from the world of Windows to Slackware, their support calls to me have fallen from several times per month for the bastard child of Redmond, to none (zero, zilch, nada, 0) for well over two years now on Slack.
Linux works perfectly well on user desktops, as long as the wetware of the installer understands the needs of the user.
