Most windows users and future linux users dont read manuals. This is just an example. A lot of programs need a finishing touch. Preferences should not have to be set ( cdburning programs), features complete ( msn messenger programs ). Desktop users want to work with there pc and when it is linux they want it to work as easy as windows.
