I mean correct me if I’m wrong but I feel like getting an ISO on a flash drive is pretty basic computer skills, something that even if you’ve never heard of before would be easy to do as long as you aren’t too computer illiterate.

That last bit is doing a ton of lifting here.

Having worked for a company’s internal tech support, I highly doubt that even half of the employees I supported would be capable of that, and that’s only because that half were good enough with computers that they never had to call in for help, so I don’t know their skill level.

Knowing what an ISO even is already puts you above the average user by a significant margin.

True. I guess my thoughts on the average tech literacy of any given individual might be biased because almost everyone I’ve grown up with and been friends with have decent knowledge of computing and what I consider basic stuff like iso’s and flashing them.

But thinking of the group of individuals I work with right now I suppose 40 - 50% would struggle or atleast need to read a web page or two on how to do it
