I believe it is far easier to configure software from a ascii text file then some of those GUI interfaces on the windows applications.
I must beg to differ here. The GUI interface, IMO, is faster unless you happen to already know about that configuration file. That is why installers like YaST2 and Lizard, and D.E.'s like KDE and GNOME are really popular in Linux.
The inconsistencies in the use of dll's is a real problem in windows.
This won't be a reason much longer. MS has implemented a system to protect critical DLL's from being overwritten in Windows 2000 and Windows ME (Millennium Edition). -Tim ----------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy R.

The majority of M$ applications have been written as single user programs, whereas on Linux the majority are multi-user. This causes large problems on networked computers.
Just my $.02 worth.
