first of all windows by technicals merits is not a quality product it is crap.
secondly you don't need autotools or console to install software you have software center for installations and software sources(software center -> edit(menu) -> software sources) for extra ppas.
there are very few bugs like the ones you describe but there are many more security holes in windows itself.and there are bugs in windows software also. and then there is constant bsoding and then constant crashes and fragmented drives extremely slow boot times and extra slow system after some time of usage.
