I think that this bug should not be a seperate bug, it appears to be a
system of several other bugs:

1. Hardware compatibility with Linux ( there is still a lot, albeit less, 
hardware that is not supported. The video out on my laptop is one example )
2. Software compatibility with Linux ( the biggest gapping whole is video 
games, and the smaller software companies that cannot be bothered to make Linux 
version. The only reason I am using Windows at home is because Nero Vision is 
not available for Linux, the closest is DVD slideshow, but I cannot ask my wife 
to use this software. I recently installed Windows XP for my sister in law 
because her school is teaching them Microsoft office instead of Openoffice.)
3. Linux startup times ( Fresh Ubuntu install on my laptop takes 2 minutes + to 
load whereas a fresh Windows Install takes 45 seconds ).

If these three points were address, I could convert everyone I know to
Linux in about 22 minutes ( 2 minutes to convince + 20 minutes to
install )
