The downside of the Linux community is that it's full of smart, brash

This looks like an interface with potential but I lived for at least a
decade in a Unix world, watching MS Windows march to domination
because the Unix community couldn't agree on an interface. Variety
seems nice but when it comes to operating system marketing to the
masses it is not.

Could you explain, to a really dumb Linux user who's too lazy to
figure it out on his own, how you "set up" these menus. From what I
can see you have to start adding icons one by one, hunting down not
only the executable but then guessing at what the icon you're
assigning looks like. Is there any easier way?

I really am dumb as I can't figure out how to get a KDE or Gnome menu.
