Yeah, it took me way too long to get Debian running on my pc, because for some reason the website assumed that everyone would have a Linux to install Debain with. I haven't had that, and that one tool they had didn't work.

This is exactly what I never get. Do they not know that when you buy a new computer it tends to have Windows and only Windows on it?! I can't help concluding that the people who run Debian must be bearded nerds who live in PC-filled basements and assume that all their users are the same.
