Yeah... Linux will never be popular because of a boot loader. Thats some solid ground right there.

I wonder what would be the percentage of standard computer user that even know what a boot loader is and of that, what GRUB is.

Sounds like a Xbox/Playstation or religious/politics debate in the sense that the ultimate argument being I chose/am X so X is the right/only choice and I must convince myself and others or this. You can then have open and civilzed discussions on your point of view or, be closed minded and in worst case scenarios, start wars. History has seen the lather a few times...
