Hey - I still have to support a few friends who are non-tech, need to use some specific 'Doze aps - and are about as likely to learn to use RPM (or GRUB) as Dubya is - to speak real Engrish. (One likely has to go to W2K next, to run a graphics program used by others / ie to eat.) I'll prolly get to install it.. :(

As for me.. soon as a box appears, I'll likely go with the most automagic install distro du jour of Lx, with an aim to become competent enough to morph --> Debian. At the level of interest I'll invest - it won't be anytime soon when I could find an Open OS workable? graphics "Solution\ufffd" for say - the above person's situation. Y'know?

Lots of L. improvements. But the Beast can't be replaced with a Penguin - by folks who could not grok what a DOS .bat file is for.

(Per my reply to Norman - (Win)-Mozilla's fatal inability to upgrade without a wipe means, I can't drop That on a Newbie either - especially! if they use the Moz mail client .. Moz just like Billyware in this respect.)


Cheers,

Ashton
