The Mac is easy for me - I'm a card-carrying nongeek - but I suspect, based on what 'Im Indoors says about Linux, that you just haven't had a compatible set of tutes or experiences with Linux which have given you an "aHA!" moment with it.
But it's all horses for courses. Don't believe fanatics on either side of the Mac/Windows divide; me, I use Windows front end at the mo because 'Im Indoors runs it on what is now our joint computer, but the underlying software which runs our crazy system is all Linux and a few Perls of Wisdom. I grew up on Macs, though.
My feel is that you give yourself a bit more time and space with Linux et alia. You're probably still a bit grieving and this weather is not conducive to learning ANYTHING requiring more than half a brain. Be Nice To Tinyjo Day starts NOW. :-)
