I don't feel like linux is expensive investment for everyone.
I am a first year CS student. when I got my first laptop recently, I got crazy and installed debian (had some prior experience with command line), it didn't work very well for laptop. All DEs except enlightenment (yeah i even tried it) had lots of display related glitches due to cheap hardware.
Then I moved on and installed fedora. Nothing to tweak from CLI. Just changed few settings from GUI and peace of mind even on relatively obscure hardware.
It has been vastly simplified and worth it for anyone in IT / CS related fields.
