Let's not even get into the user friendliness here.  I was a system
administrator of an NT network for more than a year, just less than a year
ago.  Then I switched over to Linux.  Before that, I have used various
UNIX flavors before, including AIX, Solaris, DU.  Of course, I had quite a
bit to learn, but I made may way through slowly.  I know there is still a
long way for me to go.  But at least I am on my way.  At first, I found
UNIX machines harder to use than NT.  But now, I say the same thing with
NT machines: they are harder to use than UNIX.  I am not a psychologist,
but I think that's because I am getting used to the environment.  If there
is anyone who is very very interested in this topic, they should get into
the area of Computer-Human Interaction.  

Regards,
C. J. Tan
