Windows people usually don't maintain their Windows, at least they
seldom know what they do, they usually click a bottom and get a new
service pack.
Linux users usually maintain their user space by knowing what they are
doing.
People used to Windows, usually buy hardware, connect hardware and use
hardware.
People used to Linux usually take care about the hardware they buy.
I'm aware that XP "support" stops now. If this is the reason to switch
to Linux, I suspect that most of them will not be satisfied with Linux.
There seems to be a reason why they used XP as long as possible, instead
of using Linux.
The "brainless" approach doesn't work that good with Linux.
