Pretty much the same way it is used on desktops or workstations, the kernel runs, sets up a userspace, and you get a display (Not always X in mobile applications, for example, Android doesn't use X at all.) you can interact with like any other mobile OS.

Yes, you can use Linux even if you are not technologically savvy. Linux is used on a wide variety of consumer devices, including cellphones, PDAs, kiosks, and netbooks. You may have used Linux and not even realized it.As to whether or not you should, why not?

All it takes is an open mind to learn new ways of doing things, and the ability to follow simple instructions.
