I was visiting a (german) police station a few weeks ago. They use GNU/Linux with the windowmaker WM, I guess SuSE is their flavor. I asked the fifty-something-year-old officer if there where problems regarding usability and the GUI. He said "No, there are no problems, it is just like any computer should be." I am sure he didn't have to install it by himself, but there seem to be no problems with everyday use of Linux in german police stations. I think that's cool. Police officers are not geeks in general... - - ueberlamer -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/AV2Qm4+n6JcwFSURAi3SAKCytJVPNAFLCECCUIlGlWig5ue7uwCgkYAr xoianFjqypUXhVaT2H16bwU= =8YmP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
