To Mr. Columbo: So what is wrong with the quote? What you and too many others do NOT understand is that most users are NOT programmers and it is really ridiculous to act otherwise! :-) columbo wrote:

To All: I do not know how most of you feel, but, instead of worrying about SuSe desupporting any version of same, maybe it is time to "desupport" any new versions , to include 9.3, until they get ALL the bugs out and people have time TO MAKE FULL USE OF WHAT VERSION THEY HAVE!!!!! :-)
Hi OldSarge,
Maybe you should take the advice of this insightful individual who posted this not too long ago:
/* To the List: Actually buying and installing ANY version of Linux is the major goal of all on this list, I hope! But, when a distro has problems, instead of just bad mouthing it, people should ask for help!!.....I am NOT upgrading from 9.2 to 9.3, simply because I have not mastered 9.2, which has a great deal to it! I do NOT understand how to untar no matter who gives me information on how to, for instance, and there are some minor upgrades that are tar that I would like to use and can't. So, is that the distro's fault? NO! I think, though, it would be nice if some of those who begrudge the neophytes attempts to learn and ask, would keep their fingers off the key board unless they have some CONSTRUCTIVE words to say!!!!! */
Oh wait.....this quote is from one of YOUR postings.
