   Absolutely not. I made step-by-step instructions on how to set up Ventoy   
   and install a Linux OS and I still had to help him, looking over his   
   shoulder while he did it.   
      
   He said he used to be a bit dismissive of Linux, but he's fed up with   
   Microsoft. More specific their recent policy of 'buy new hardware if you   
   want to use W11'. Linux Mint offers a safe environment for people who   
   want to do netbanking and digital 'government stuff' without having to   
   invest in new hardware.
