You really claim Windows to be easy to install?? Compared to Linux it might 
be, but if you want to get the last inch of speed out of your PC you have to 
know all your HW and SW very well. Newcomers could only hope to have a friend 
with that knowledge, otherwise they will soon be crying for a faster processor 
and more RAM, because they are not able to config Windows optimal.
