I think that even for newbies, GUI has not to be necessarily simple. Advanced options may be optionnaly displayed with a button, but making these powerful options accessible to everyone is important. Suse rpm manager is complex, but nicely done (colour codes, for example). If a GUI is logical and well designed, it may be full of options. Eric
