The price of trying to attract the uninitiated... Indeed, but IIRC since I never actually used anything other than Unix and Linux, at least in Windows you had the following: "Click OK to confirm" with no other option:-) But going back to your point, yes, why? I have attracted several people into linux in the past 20 years, and they have said things like such a (proprietary) software is not available. Never have I heard anyone say: I miss this feature of Windows.....
