Take another look at how that page defines "computer-friendly."  It's
not a very high bar.  "Computer-friendly" is defined as  a user that can
download our distribution and install it, as long as we can give *clear
instructions* on how to do so, without requiring them to troubleshoot
problems or figure out how secure boot works.

Right now, we're missing the "clear instructions" part.

Of course we are missing that part *now*, there is no motherboard with UEFI and Secure Boot in the wild so we can take screenshots and publish them. Once such board will be released, plenty of instructions and tutorials will follow, to make it work not only with Linux, but also with older versions of Windows.
