With knowledge you need half a day, for Windows people without knowledge
need half an hour ;). But comparisons like this are useless. The
conclusion that people started with Windows and don't know Linux isn't
true for the scene were I'm from. We started with the C64 etc. and then
we used Linux only and because of troubles with real-time audio some
switched to Windows. As an audio engineer on work I had to work with
Microsoft and Apple and less trouble, at home I'm using Linux with lot
of troubles.
