Depends.  If all you want is e-mail and web browsing, that's not necessarily
true.  The problems always come up when you want 3D graphics or to access your
digital video camera, etc.

Linux-based operating systems serve geeks and simple users well.  It's that 80%
of users in the middle that are harder to deal with.
