>If it wasn't for the Arch guide for my specific laptop I found online holding my hand through every single step of the way there would be no chance in hell I would get it working. I feel like you need to be a linux guru just to get it working.
Really? I find it pretty easy to find instructions to configure a particular device or install a certain software. If you want to install a DE, just Google how to install a DE to Arch Linux, or if you have a Broadcom wireless, you can Google how to install the wireless card.
There's little laptop-specific instructions you'll need, and you don't need to be a guru since there's very good instructions available, especially in the Wiki.

Throughout each installation I'd hit a new detour, which in turn led me even further astray, and so on, and so on, until I never got back on the happy path and had to restart. That was my situation.
