Linux:
Bad for beginners, even thought the interface got a lot better now than what it was 10 years ago... you still can't totally avoid the command prompt.

I think you can with some of the 'buntu's (edubuntu almost definitely 'cause it's made for kids/as an educational OS).
Actually, that's kind of my peeve-all this discussion about linux as if it's a monolith. There are a whole bunch of distros (wiki's list), some of which are useful for certain situations, but not so much for others. (How many people use knoppix for their desktop?) I had to make a bootable kubuntu usb for an install job, but I'd be using a knoppix derivative if I actually wanted usb linux. For a media center, there's one of the mythTV distros. The great thing about linux is that there are all sorts, so you can almost pick one that's just right for a specific task. I kind of want to poll people on which linux they use.
