Lot of people do not use Linux because using Linux would bring them out of their comfort zone. Most users use Windows at work, school, and home and have learned how to use computers through Windows.

What is another way you can get a copy of Linux for your home PC?
Downloading Linux distributions is the easiest way. You can usually order a CD as well. I know that the Ubuntu website gives users an opportunity to download or purchase the CD. I think all you need to pay is shipping costs. Another great way to experiment with Linux is by installing it onto a USB drive. PenDriveLinux is a program that will automatically download a linux distribution and copy the iso file onto a USB drive. You can then plug in the USB stick into your computer, restart and in most cases have linux pop up without any hassle. If you want to download that software (it's free) just Google pendrivelinux.
