Say a friend is looking for a new system, and said person is not particularly savvy with technology, what system would you point them toward?

Unless you are looking to learn nix, go with Windows or Apple.
Unless you made sure all the hardware works and you want to fuck around Linux ain’t for normies despite what this forum is going to screech at you.
I agree. I am probably going to put my 70+ year old on Linux mint but I’ll have to do tech support
I’ve done so decades ago & they only ever needed me for distro upgrades (now not even that in Tumbleweed).
They never bought Windows or macOS only hardware.
What sort of things do you expect to tech support them (that would differ from them using mac or win)?
(Aside from the initial os install.)
