KohlyKohl, a casual user may find Linux easy, I agree, but I was referring to the gaming part. If all you do is browse the internet, check your e-mail, write up some simple documents, then it's gravy. However, once you get into the realm of specializations, like gaming, encoding, burning, multimedia tools, that's where the problem lies. Gaming isn't as simple as it is with Windows. With Cedega it's not too bad, but there are issues, and you do have to pay for it, since the older CVS' don't cover the newer games. Wine is even worse since a lot of tweaking is required to get things to work, and unless you have the patience and diligence to get a game to work, you won't be playing that game anytime soon.
So, for casual users, I agree it's very suitable for them. For advanced users who do an array of things, it's more challenging so you NEED to know what you're doing and have the patience and knowledge to figure things out on your own and with community support.
