Dear Fuzzy Logic

... but you are an IT professional (I assume from your posts) and I have
a certain degree of intermediate knowledge self taught over 15 years.

My friends who do not have these skills want a PC to do what it says on
the box. Maintenance (except for major incidents) should be easier to
handle and less time consuming ... BIOS, uninstall this, that and the
other, run anti-spyware, disable this, that and the other, update
drivers etc. etc. .... totally unrealistic for most of the market.
