Bad news for ya - OpenElec IS a Linux distro!
If you had windows 8.1 on there already, why not just install XBMC on there? I have 2x 2820 NUCs and 1x 4010 i3 NUC all running windows 8.1 and using Logitech harmony remotes with the built in IR sensor. Install the windows drivers for the CIR and it should recognise any MCE remote.
That said, im sure OpenElec will work too, but if you say you have no plans to poke around or learn how to make it work, why not just stick with windows, which you are familiar with?
