That's not most people's reality.
99.999%+ of people out there in the world don't start with a desire for a Linux setup; and so many of the small proportion who at some point want to consider it start with pre-existing hardware. And yes, having tried and largely burnt out trying to use Linux on several different computers on different occasions, it can be hugely frustrating, if not ultimately impossible.

- fsflover 1y agoSystem76, Purism, Taxedo, Pine64, Oxide.
