I kind of agree with you but there's also the issue that when you have a problem with Windows, there are 30 people to tell you, "Here are the hoops, and here's how to jump through them," while on Linux there are often only 3-5 people, all telling you, "LOL wipe and replace your whole OS with the distro that I use because I don't have that specific problem."

I think it's the other way around. I often find only one source (if any) for configuring windows, and it's some registry edit that hasn't worked for years. On linux, there will be a dozen people providing multiple ways of getting it done, most of which work.
