But 95% of the desktop market *IS* running windows. It's one thing to
train 40% of the people who use Linux. It's another thing to train 95%
of the people who use computers. Think about it.
I agree that single click is better "once you get used to it", but I
still prefer doubleclick because I like to be able to select with single
click without launching. I guess at this point, it's more "I'm used to
this, you should learn to be like me" than anything else. Not wrong,
just different.
