Seriously, neither of us is exactly a technophobe and neither of us has
actually got round to installing (let alone using) Linux in spite of our
liking for it.  The problem for me is that I have too much investment in
the DOS programs, and changing over on a single machine is risky and
time-consuming.  It would take a long time to convert all my utilities
to Linux versions, and in the meantime the system wouldn't be usable.  I
don't have disk space to run both.  Doing it on a separate machine would
avoid that, of course...

Including me, at the moment...
