There will be multiple distros, because there are different things that people give priorities. The idea is find a distro that fits you. I use debian. We can't push our choice of distro on others. We can make sure whatever improvements we make is shared with others. It happens mostly as everybody pushes changes in upstream. > -------------------- > The opinions i raised regarding user friendliness are not my personal, > atleast in some cases, either it was from 'my own experiance in the past wen > i had only one system with no internet connection', or from the expressions > i gathered in the few hours at an ILUG tvm stall at kannur engg college, I hope you will come up with a list of those issues which we can work on. > from the public.
