I do take issue with these sorts of statements.  It looks like a
technophobe can use Windows, but they can't.  They don't know what
they're doing, they have a PC infested with malware.  Every PC I've seen
used by someone who doesn't know about computing is like that.  They
have programs that crash all over the place, or just don't work.

Windows DOESN'T "just work".  Consider yourself lucky if it does.
