What you have noticed is that computers as they are require an extensive support network. The phrase, "ready for the desktop" was invented by people who don't like free software. The same people said that free software would not be able to make a kernel, a userland, a GUI, well written documentation and so on and so forth. "Ready for the desktop" is their last gasp because free software has delivered everything most people need but mainstream vendor support but that too is on the way. With everyone from Asus to mom and pop computer stores clued in, GNU/Linux will be easier to use than that other stuff that's shipped for the last 25 years.
