Linux is the most oversold OS of all time. It’s cool that it exists for nerds who like to tinker as a hobby but to suggest it’s even close to consumer friendly is insane. I’m not defending windows but to pretend like there’s a clear cut alternative is not accurate at all.

I'm a software developer. 

Linux is GREAT at work, everything I need. 

Windows is GREAT when I want to play games/browse. It's all I need. 

It's just extra steps to get games working on Linux. I have dual boot on my personal computer but haven't used the Linux side since I was a freelance web developer. 

So you are exactly right, Linux has its role but it's NOT really for your average consumer. 

I can't imagine trying to teach my grandfather how to use Linux......
