And you know few people can do it. The majority is only users, and they're happy for this, like me. And they will be happier if they do not have the machines configuration changed when installed a new program. And 90%, I think, don't know what to do when it happens. Come on, Alan, we'd enough of M$ behaviour! >I continue to be amazed and appalled by the reaction of people who did not >bother to read the instructions and just installed blindly. Last week I bought Harry Potter, a game, to my son, 7 years old. When I realize he was playng the game. I ask him if he installed the game by himself. His reply: "Daddy, you just put cd in the drive and press Enter key 2 or 3 times and click in finished button" That's the way people thinks, unhappily. But it is. My english is very poor, you know it. But I want to learnig about computers, I love them. So I subscribe the AbiWord list. Believe me, is very hard to me writting in a language that's not mine and I don't undestand completely. But I did just because I want to learn. And I learned a lot here. But it's not typical. That's what I think, a AbiWord user. Just a user. Thank you for help and attention.
