Hard to use is relative. Hard to use compared to CPM or DOS?
Probably not. Hard to use compared to Win95/98 or especially

When you can't find a description of how to actually use Icon Maker 
to assign desktop icons to newly installed software executables, 
under XFree86, and it can't be figured out by fidling with it, then 
its too hard to use!
