You aren't really trying to argue the point that windows has better documentation than GNU/Linux. That and the *goal* shouldn't be who has the most users. The *goal* should be a desktop that does what the user base needs it to do. The GNU/Linux user communities need to stop this nonsense of trying to compete with Windows and/or OS X. Instead we should be focusing on building an operating system that works for the existing user base. If its good other people *will* learn it.
