until they face abnormal problems...
until they have to install peripherals.....
until they have to install and uninstall any software/programs....
until they don't have 2 years to set their sound card..
till then everything is rosy rosy...
and then they turn to what 90% of normal population uses....

So, fixed that for you. Yeah, mod me down if you want to, but your time is better spend fixing alsa/oss/pulseaudio/jack/esd/aRts/GStreamer (humor me and list the ones i forgot),

Sounds just like all the Windows XP users I know (home users).
If it doesn't come pre-installed and pre-configured, very few people know how to "fix" things, or add peripherals, or install new software, or even how to run Windows Update.
Since I'm the family "computer geek", I get all the phone calls to do all the things you've listed. Even from the younger cousins (those in their early 20s)!!
