Ideal operating systems do not exist, and the romantic halo around Linux often disappears when you try to make him friends with your computer hardware. If you are not a bearded admin in a sweater, but an ordinary user, migrating to Linux may not be an easy task.

I've found that things have gotten a lot better on this end in recent years. Even then, most people only really have basic stuff anyway, and people with the more technical hardware tend to be more technical themselves.
The situation is really changing for the better and the Linux desktop is becoming more and more friendly to the average user, but it's too early to talk about any significant successes. Linux is the king of servers, and the market share is near zero on desktops. This is the reality of today. Smiley

It would be easier for Linux to succeed on desktops, but in fairness, I note that Windows 10 is not so bad, it has a built-in security center and rumors about the impossibility of disconnecting Cortana are greatly exaggerated.
