On please, if it were that tough then teenage me never would have managed it. 20 years ago, e.g. 2004 (I first installed it in 2001), installing Linux and getting networked was already user friendly. The only hitch I ever had was figuring out ndiswrapper, but my ethernet cards all worked "out of the box" and installers handled the bootloader without users even having to know what a bootloader was. It's not like 20 years ago was the 90s or something, and the dark days of Windows lasted well into the 00s.
