I really want to use Liniux but I cannot afford four weeks of faffing about trying to get my head round arcane instructions on websites to discover, for example, that there is no driver for my printer unless I rtied this old one and tweaked this bit here and built this or that into the kernel there.
Then why don't you do what most people do with Windows: buy a PC built and installed by a commercial dealer with the system already set up and configured?
Do you think most regular Windows users just buy a naked PC and install Windows in it? Some do, yes, but most just buy a Dell or CompaQ. This takes away the guesswork of finding out which hardware is compatible and which software or drivers are required.
Like I said before, I've seen WindowsXP installations go awry too, and I remember my previous employer having a hard time trying to get Windows2000 installed on a machine that previously was running WindowsNT 4.0. We could never get it to work. Does this mean that Windows2000 or WindowsXP require a college degree and an MCSE certification to use them? Not really.
