Except it isn't because that hardware was made to facilitate an easy install of Windows. Also, most of those people bought it pre-installed. So you're not only expecting them to have an easy install process, you're also expecting them to do something they haven't had to do in decades.

Some problems remaining unsolved take less energy than trying to solve them.
