There will be different amounts of friction depending on the customer and what they expect. If all they need is Chrome and like one or two other Electron apps, as long as they're walked through the software center on first boot, quickly.

They'd have to educate their customers through marketing like Apple does to ease that transition, and Apple still only has a single digit percentage of the PC market.
