I would agree, unhappy Windows 10 user will be pleased by KDE, or latest
GNOME that is installed by default on CentOS 7. I also would add mate, so
if user still have mental ability to categorize things, he/she may be

to stop using brain and use search instead as latest KDE and Gnome make
you (someone said they only make happy the "iPad generation" of people ;-)
Just my $0.02
