This is very true for the most part. But consider: My wife learned every thing she knows about computer by osmosis, she's very careful about what she clicks, and Nigerian Princes. Having run a business herself for many years, she had employees get machines infected every once in a while till she switched her company to Linux. After that she never had a problem. Linux by itself provides so much protection from exploits and malware that you probably CAN run old systems with naive users. One sysadmin can keep a whole herd of sheep fairly well guarded. - -- _____________________________________ - ---This space for rent--- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) iEYEARECAAYFAlQjYVIACgkQv7M3G5+2DLKC0wCgrzu3TtjJIZ8IDsNppTziXwxl EUMAmwfo2RhnjBDGYrxffM8vV7tM/2nD =zXx8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
