There are no applications available
Non-sense. If you do not have a "stripped linux", after install you have all you need for usual use (if you pick the right distro for you) and if it isn't there already, thousands of additional applications available for free: Nearly every distro has a centralized location where you can search for, add, or remove software (using a point and click interface or the command line). With package management systems, you can open up one tool, search for an application (or group of applications), and install without having to do any web searching (or purchasing).
