Please, provide more accurate information:
* Lazarus/FPC version being installed.
* exact error messages
* where the Lazarus was installed. (it feels like project's working
directories contained spaces and/or nont Ansi chars)

I could also help your friend getting Lazarus work on both Win and OSX
via skype.

You're right: Java, C++, C#, Delphi or whatever else is solution :)
