I think it's safe to say that what they say is true. Perhaps you are just
having trouble setting something up rather than it being Debian's fault?
Remember, Debian isn't exactly known for it's ease of setup (I can vouch for
that, it took me ten or twenty times longer to get everything working than it
did in Mandrake).
Still, they don't claim it is easy either...

*their* fault.

Well, it all depends on the target user. Honestly, until Debian has a
friendly GUI installer, it isn't going to be a contender against Windows
and/or commercial distros for the folks that need that.
