That is bullshit.  You think it is easy to get Windows to do ANYTHING?
That was never true, not even before ximian, and it is still not true.

I agree, Windows was quite difficult too.  Back in the Windows 95/98
days I had to reinstall a few times, because of viruses and corruption.
I remember having corrupted registries, vague GDI errors, things I
didn't know how to fix.  I remember people having problems with Windows,
coming to me for help because I did "know computers", but still being
stuck.

Windows is easy when it works, but when it stuffed up, it was just as
difficult.
