It wasn't _that_ hard in 1996. Nevertheless, once installed, there was a 
good chance that your hardware wasn't supported properly. In my case, it 
was the video card and the audio. The former was limited to 800x600, and 
the latter didn't play sounds at all.

My experience is that whether Windows or Linux, I need to maintain it 
for others. If I use my mother as an example of a very basic user, she 
encounters as many problems whether she uses one or the other. Heck, she 
managed to screw up a Mac. The operating system that's given her the 
least amount of problems though is Windows 11. Somehow, that thing 
resists her destructive nature. Meanwhile, everything works great for me 
dad regardless of whether it is MacOS, Windows or Linux. Nevertheless, 
he had a preference for Linux Mint when I had that installed for him 
because it stayed out of his way and only did what it was supposed to.
