My understanding is that that's the point of Ubuntu...to make Linux accessible to most folks.

I'm sure there are ways to screw up just about any OS but the Ubuntu folks were aiming to make it easy enough to actually be a replacement for many using Windows.

Their slogan is 'Linux for Human Beings"
