The problem with Linux is it doesn't come preinstalled out of most stores, and even when it is, the lack of uninstallable bloat gives the system an alien feeling when Windows users try it.

Where's my McAfee free trial? Where's the pointless stock ticker and ads on the lock screen?!

The whole Linux experience is new and just plain scary!!

@catsalad where is the "stock ticker, that shows me dow jones, which is irrelevant for low income person in middle of europe, but is prominently placed in the bottom of the task bar bigger then the info, that my webcam is turned on."
