You should not hold it against people who know that Unix is a much better
network OS, and have a particular interest in using Linux in this way. One
cannot switch a house full of Windows boxes (and a Mac) to Linux overnight,
and I have never used Linux. Today I cannot snap my fingers and compile a
correct microdistribution. I can, however, have a willingness to try and use
Linux in a practical, needed application. If this makes me lazy, so be it.
If this makes me less smart and less knowledgeable than you, yes, it does.
If the only good way to try/use Linux is to fully partition and install
Linux on a hard drive, or compiling your own distribution, (anything else
can probably be considered canned), then much fewer people will consider
trying it.
