The concept of free software, source code and choice is a great one. However, when one goes from concept to actual product, Linux falls flat down. A few minutes of using Linux is usually more than most people can handle and back to Windows or OSX they go. Usually all pissed off at Linux. -- flatfish+++ 163 Reasons not to deal with Michael "Snit" Glasser, the Prescott Computer Guy http://cosmicpenguin.com/snitlist.html

That's why I keep advocating for the code behind GNU/Linux to actually be completely free. If everyone was aware that the code was available to them and that it's been developed mostly by regular people, it would truly appear as a "for the people, by the people" alternative to Windows. In their attempt to be a "better" commercial product than Windows and OS X, GNU/Linux simply alienates anyone who associates "commercial product" with clean and efficient design. If, however, it is presented as an alternative product which contains absolutely no commercial code because it is, instead, a "homegrown product," the many bizarre design choices, lack of features and stability problems would be a lot easier to overlook. Consider fruits and vegetables as an example. In a supermarket, people expect for the food that they buy to only spotless and perfect. However, when they buy from farmers, they understand the possibility that certain foods might be misshapen or have odd colours. Windows and OS X, in this case, would be the fruits and vegetables which APPEAR to be perfect but happen to be filled with pesticides, herbicides in addition to being GMO. GNU/Linux would be the organic product... it doesn't always look right but happens to be healthier. -- Silver Slimer Wikipedia & OpenMedia Supporter 163 Reasons not to deal with Michael "Snit" Glasser, the Prescott Computer Guy http://cosmicpenguin.com/snitlist.html

It's perfectly easy to obtain a 100% (give or take) open source Linux distro. Debian is one such. You're almost as boring and self absorbed as Goblin. -- "I have a BSEE....

Debian IS indeed ONE such product but the majority are NOT such products. The problem is that most people don't seek out Debian as the distribution of choice for GNU/Linux. Their eyes are rather fixated on Linux Mint or Ubuntu. By the way, you have the right to filter me out if you're bored of my comments. I won't shed a tear if I never get to communicate with you again. -- Silver Slimer Wikipedia & OpenMedia Supporter 163 Reasons not to deal with Michael "Snit" Glasser, the Prescott Computer Guy http://cosmicpenguin.com/snitlist.html

You have no idea how much you and Flatfish and GreyCloud have become shills for Carroll - and in doing so are targeting me and my personal and even professional lives all because you lost some Usenet debates.
