Interested neither in use of the computer as a jealous religious icon demanding polishing and genuflection for two hours each day, nor in amassing technical expertise and tools to qualify as a professional sysadmin, these users are sold on the promise of the Macintosh (”it just works”) yet want or need to extend the life of their legacy PC hardware. Linux is attractive to these users, particularly Ubuntu, because they offer the unspoken promise of 40% of the Mac user experience at 0% of the cost. If your idea of a PC is a tool to accomplish useful or interesting activities, rather than as something that must needs be endlessly tweaked and twiddled, you may fall into this group. This group overlaps with each of the previous five, in particular the “Basic Home” and “SOHO” users. If you’re in a SOHO environment, then you are your IT support; you can’t afford downtime, instability or insecurity, because it takes you away from your business. For these people, even more than the “pure” “basic home” users, Windows is not only grossly deficient, but grossly inappropriate.
