One off installations are simple in any system, management of production environments are a constant source of pain, Windows, OSX or Linux. --renato

But the point is still that we seem to be OK with putting more pain on Windows and OS X users (of whatever type) than Linux. Cheers, Rafael

There is nonzero incremental pain to Linux. --paulr
