But in many cases Windows is pre-installed so it doesn't matter if installing Windows is equally hard. People don't have to install Windows in order to use it. In order to get normal people to use Linux there should be similarly no barrier to entry. I've seen companies selling used laptops with Linux distro of choice pre-installed. Something like that could work.

Yes, and also one can buy Lenovo and IIRC Dell laptops with Linux.
