The fact that it's not for beginners is exactly why it will never be a serious threat to Windows (any version). For a new user, linux is very intimidating and definately not user friendly. To make matters worse, the existing documentation is written very poorly if at all. I am very much in favor of Linux and the open source/free concept. However, if Linux is going to move out of the hands of the "Experts" (as windows has), then something has got to be done to cross the boundary between a button pushing user only and the expert. joulsilva@netc.pt wrote in message <3af86a96$1@212.18.160.197>... > >"Jakobb" <qbajank@poczta.onet.pl> wrote: >> >>U�ytkownik <louie@oti.com.hk> napisa� >>w wiadomo�ci >>news:9alcec$5pd$1@news.hk.linkage.net... >>> Please stop using those linux, it's >>suck!!!! >>> why? >>>linux is the most powerful OS in the world, >but it is not for beginner's >> >>
