Sorry....sometimes my sarcasm about Windows isn 't very good.

Windows is easy to install because it crashes, dies, and then forces you
to reinstall it.

Linux doesn 't crash and die very often, so I find installing it more
difficult since I forget what I learned from doing it a year or two
earlier.

I was not advocating for Windows, any version, but rather simply noting
that I think most of M$ spends their time making the install automatic
since they know we will have to do it over and over anyways... ;-)
