No, the use it because it was on the computer they were sold

They can't use linux on a desktop as the support isn't there for them to
use it.


there is more support than there is for windows. unless you are a
corporate customer there is NO support for windows


That's not correct, the obvious support is from those you know.

Most people don't have a clue about computers


The first true statement in your post


and that doesn't mix with linux.

These days, it does.


Nope, even with the distros that try to look like Win.

If the linux crowd ever actually wake up to that fact they might try and
make a version of linux that most people can use but don't hold your
breath.


Its called Linux Mint.


Not for naïve users who have only ever used Win.


Actually the naive user who has only ever used - or been abused by -
win, finds it no less difficult to use than windows. He appreciates it
runs faster and better than windows however.

Which reminds me, I must pop round and see how he is getting on.
