Android has been the most successful consumer Linux distribution in-large because it works extremely well out of the box without the need for additional configurations or fixes. This is not the case with most Linux distributions, and in a world where users simply want to unpack their electronics and immediately start using them, the learning curve associated with many Linux distributions hampers its overall adoption. Mandrake is another example of a Linux distribution that was highly functional straight out of the box, and if modern Linux developers want to help expand the adoption of Linux, they should follow the simplicity of use found in distributions like Mandrake and Android.
