Emmanual -

I can use them fine...you give me the resources to get a network full of
former Windows/Mac users to use them efficiently and I'll eat my words.
Until then, for people thinking about switching the "masses" to desktop
Linux (which is what my rant/point is about)

Your atitude/point of view ("there is something better, faster, leaner,
etc. - so learn it") is BS and exacly why the great "migration" isn't
happening anytime soon.

The only people going to use desktop Linux in numbers are geeks, those with
the latest greatest hardware and anyone dictated to by some corporate IT
department.

Thems don't add up to large numbers and won't soon.

MRW
