Because the first thing that most people say when I show them rio is
'yuck'. And, in most cases, they don't stop saying 'yuck'.Acme does
not help.

Sorry, but most people hate the Plan 9 GUI. It is off-putting enough
that they are not that interested in seeing the beauty of it all.

It seems a shame to keep losing people because of one aspect of Plan
9. For me, anyway, rio is not the only piece of this system that is
important. In fact, for what i'm doing with it, rio does not matter at
all.

I realize there are many differences of opinion on this issue ...

thanks
