Any system will need skills to use, open or closed. It is a lie to
say that because one uses a "familiar" GUI it requires no skill
and that another that uses an "unfriendly" CLI it requires a
skilled expert.
Now I would argue that less skill is required to configure a
Linux/open system rather than a cmparable Windows/closed system,
but that does not mean than no skill is required.
