In my opinion, not entirely, the underlying NT kernel seems better designed than Linux.
Windows 7 was very good, later versions were turned into crap.

From what I read through the years, NT actually had design behind it, while Linux is a pile of improvised hacks roughly following an "ancient" 1970s design.
Of course that might be wrong, and I'm using Linux almost continuously on last year and it seems solid, the only annoyances being installing stuff, and things designed with 1970s mentality that forces the use of the terminal.

Try OpenSUSE it has Yast2 GUI GTK. Graphical manager for packages, one-click install of downloaded RPMs from web sources. Full GUI for all system settings, services, etc. No CLI needed.
