Once again, the original question that came up in this thread was "How
can we evangelize Linux as an option to those people being left out in
the cold by the discontinuation of PTLE?"

You hit the nail on the head and the entire reasoning behind this
discussion and what I and others have been trying to explain here.
"Learning ANYTHING is an investment".  That is why user-friendly makes
a difference, as the less time spent learning something, the more
sense your investment makes, and the greater ROI.  So if you have to
spend two weeks learning a new OS and how to get it to work and do
basic things you could already do in 15 minutes on your existing
solution, why would you switch exactly?  You will be forced to throw
out your investment in plugins you can't run on Linux, you will have
to spend two weeks invested in learning a new system instead of making
money on your current solution, and to most people you will be
continually tweaking the system afterwards for a larger investment of
time(This cause/rationale I touched on above, and don't really feel
like it is valid, but that is the outside opinion certainly).

So when saying that something can't be user friendly, we are
essentially giving one more reason not to come to Linux.
