Never done as OS X install, but I wouldn't say the install/upgrade process is any more difficult than a Windows install.
Flash and Netflix have always worked ok for me, but YMMV I guess.
You will have a smaller selection of software, but that is more a function of marketshare than the OS being open source.
- alanchavez 13y agoIt's actually easier, unless you're trying to do a clean install. For some weird reason Apple made it utterly difficult to be able to make a clean install.

The only "difficult" part is to copy the DMG to your USB or DVD media. Even that is like 3 steps you have to follow. Apart from that it's exactly the same procedure as upgrading. Next, next, some preferences, done.
- alanchavez 13y agoThat's the difficult part, not for me, but for the vast majority of people who don't even know what a DMG is.
- eropple 13y agoSo just hold Command-R and boot into Internet Recovery. No disk required.
- alanchavez 13y agoYeah, I know that. The vast majority of people don't.
- TylerE 13y agoSo, I've love to know how you make Netflix working on Linux, seeing as how it requires Silverlight. (and no, the netflix-desktop hack doesn't count, because it plays choppy, and doesn't work in a window)
