Would love to see that in action. I spent some time setting up newbies

Did a quick search for it and found a review:

I can see some things which might be issues -- such as not being able to 
install other program -- but overall I think this would be great for a

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They 
cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel 
somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
