Literally the statement was just Facebook. She doesn't install software, nor did she on Windows. She uses Facebook. She never used Explorer so Firefox on XP to Firefox on Linux was no learning. The performance was better on Linux.

I have corrupted Windows plenty of times over the years. You're just used to Windows so intuitively know how to fix it or not break it again.

The problem with modern computers is many don't take a ethernet cable. They only have Wi-Fi. Maybe you are buying ones speced with a NIC but that's a special order for most laptops, and likewise I can special order for Linux.
