Windows is easier to install than Linux

Because you don't have to know about /dev/hda or swap partitions. You don't have to know about X11 config files or about configuring CUPS or about networks.

You don't need to know about compiliing stuff, or about how to use apt-get.

And most of all...

PEOPLE WILL HELP YOU IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM! They won't piss at you and yell 'RTFM, YOU FUCKING NEWB!"

Truth.

billy_gates:
what the fuck is up with linux needing 3 partitions
what the hell
No other OS needs 3, even BSD doesn't need 3.

I don't think anyone has ever said Windows is harder to install than Linux. I know I'd never say that because its not true. But one reason Linux is a bit more difficult to install is because it offers so much more choice and control than Windows does.

Also remember that most Linux distros do have an automatic installation option which does everything by itself without annoying the user.

Immaterial.

RTFM... NEWB!!
