It would be so nice if they faced reality and made a Win-clueless and Win-geek version, wouldn't it? One version with bells and whistles and lights and bots and scripts and Active X everywhere, with 7 screens asking if your really, really wanted to do that, and stop sign animations anytime you got near system settings....

 

And one stripped down, red hot OS without all that cycle consuming crap for those who use their computers as more than social media hubs.

And no, we don't have to make it 'easy' for them. -We- learned, and are better for it. Besides, you can't truly say you've built a computer system until you've had to sit down and configure the jumpers, interrupts, and the address rockers on each and every card going on the backplane (none of this namby pamby OS configure plug and play automagic). Nothing on the motherboard but the CPU, RAM, north/south bridges, BIOS, and expansion card slots. Getting one of those beasts to fire up and purr was an accomplishment that makes putting one together today seem like assembling one of those old 5$ Lego kits that took 10 minutes and 15 parts.
