Smartphones, which work, can do more than a Linux newbie with a broken machine.

I don't know about you, but if I were to put a friend or relative onto Linux (as I did for my sister) I'd be their first-line tech support guy, but YMMV.
Since you are here on Fedora I will grant that you are familiar with Fedora. You do know that the various distributions are different? Means? An*expert* in Fedora Linux might be / could be lost on a Ubuntu system. Or a Mageia system. Or "name goes here' Linux system?
My sister uses Ubuntu. I have an account at the Ubuntu forums to help me learn what I need when it's distro-specific. And, my .sig there says, in part, "I don't use Ubuntu, I just support it."
