You've never used PCLinuxOS
the most intuitive UI's known to man

In PCLinuxOS, when you drag and drop a file onto a folder icon, a little context menu pops up asking if you want to move the file into the folder or copy it into the folder... brilliantly useful. Far more intuitive than Windows. I really don't think you've used Linux extensively or you simply wouldn't say that. Go buy yourself an old 2 gig Pentium box off eBay and have a play with PCLinuxOS - you'll find it very interesting and educational.
