And Linux is much more solid, so there are many fewer problems to solve.
I was once one of those newbies -- I tried Linux several times (dual booting and in virtual machines) and each time went back to Windows, before it finally occurred to me that I had spent years learning DOS and Windows, why should I expect to know Linux immediately without any effort? Once I worked through Linux's differences (file structure, etc.) I found it made more sense than Windows ever did. I'm glad I stuck with it.
