At least you are able to configure Linux. If "wizards" failed in Windoze, I was almost never able to do it manually. With Linux you can do everything you ever can dream, _if_ you know how to do it.
BTW, I think Linux has much richer and nicer (=ineffient, yes) GUIs than Windose. Disclaimer: I have been tortured by crashing Windows 95 for many, many years and my mental stability may have been suffered, so my views may be too b&w. -- Let me tell you why I use Linux: Some time ago, I made a mistake and tried to access data on a cdrom using a well-known commercial os. It totally freezed! Only by pressing eject button of the cd-drive I managed to reboot my machine. - Esko Lehtonen
