And therein lies the problem: the "look down your nose" attitude of most Linux nerds about the development of user-friendly tools and GUIs. There are vast numbers of computer owners out there who use M$ because it works for them without requiring much in the way of computer skills and until such time that a Linux distro comes along that offers the same ease of use, Linux will stay in the background.
Exactly ! When will the nerds wake-up ???
combining this with fred stevens mail kl. 19.22, which have a broad way of using his PC (nice Fred) and as I know a lot of yngsters use their PC to much more than playing games. To me it looks like the suse 10.2 have a lot of potential and too users nowadays are very creative in ways they use their PC's (like Fred's long list) and my point : the wiki's arent adequate for the new users; normal people wanting to use Linux as their OS. Tried politely to use a picture with the Linux wall, but didn't succed very much as the Use of Suse thread just were cut of by an "uebergeek" who continued the subject line, but geecked ahead on his own road. Maybe some good time lies ahead with many more wanting to have linux on their PC, and the uebergeckies maybe should make a small club with uebergecks only for those who like that, and otherwise be aware of things are changing with linux ?? things always change and maybe for the better ? :) Niels -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFqoZe0F77CaBDYxMRAgsZAJ9pTBAzeI9kpO3lO1MR3HPQvrC1VQCgoX9D 8owx1FuNgOrgowkbU3L4Yjg= =0TnZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
