When I saw the LinuxFX project which themed the Cinnamon desktop like a Windows desktop I decided to perform a little experiment

I installed it on a work computer of a person whose claim to being computer literate is limited to MS Word and opening a web browser

Key to this experiment was that the user was not informed about the OS change.

Also key was that I could install MS office via WINE.

So I set it up, added the printers, the softwares setup remote access and handed it over.

Waited to hear the alarm bells go off.

It& #39;s been 9 weeks.

I didn& #39;t even give the admin password.

Not a word.

Only received a & #39;can& #39;t print& #39; once which was a office network issue.

Quite obvious that the real issue with Linux is just a desktop that looks different

By the way, the average Joe doesn& #39;t complain when you switch them to a Mac either as we& #39;ve done with the senior members of staff

Anti-Linux agenda is 99% FUD if we are keeping it a buck
