Put any person who has zero computer experience in front of a windows computer or Linux computer and I doubt they would say the windows computer just works and the Linux one doesn't.

I did this experiment on my own kids. They find Linux more usable, and find it hard to believe people tolerate Windows.

There's also some indoctrination involved.

But they have access to both, and they prefer Linux. I think that the "Windows is genuinely easier" argument doesn't hold any water anymore.
