Downloading isn't counted as a command. It doesn't use the CLI for a start.
If you are installing it for the first time, then you won't need to remove the existing references.
Copying the files to desktop is hardly tough command to do. People could even use the GUI if they find it that difficult.

Which is why every USB device for years always has a big sticker on it "installer drivers before connecting device".
Still, if manufacturers released linux drivers in the first place, it would be as easy on XP. The fact that a some random programmer has managed to create a device wrapper for XP system device files for Linux, is phenomenal. Plus it shows manufacturers hardly need to go to big lengths to produce native linux drivers, surely.
