I don't dispute that it's a good question, but I also think I gave a
good answer: if the only reason you're using Linux (or any other OS) is
because you dislike Bill Gates, you're likely to be frustrated for a
while.

I disagree that the lack of a practical manual is the only weakness.
As of now, effectively installing and administering a Linux system
requires much more knowledge of the computer than the average computer
user is willing to gain. Whether this is a weakness of Linux is
debatable, but it certainly limits the number of people using the
system.
> Win98 or a Mac are the best bet for the average user.
For now, I'm inclined to agree.
