Linux gives the end-user more freedom, control, and choices. Most
desktop PC end-users won't use all of that freedom, control and
choices, but that doesn't mean that it shouldn't be made available to
them.


No, linux doesn't have support for modern peripherals and the end-users are
supposed to write their own drivers and relink the kernel. That's why linux
bundles tools needed by linux, and Windows don't because they are unneeded.

You're a typical linux****.
Linux makes you stupid.
All linux users (lusers) are gay.
