and given that 80% of all traffic on all Indian LUG mailing lists is comprised of Ubuntu guys complaining of their problems, I fail to see how it can be considered user friendly. I and a circle of friends (mainly non IT people) who have been using Mandriva for the past three years have *never* approached Mandriva forums with problems. Even one guy who has *paid* for Mandriva support. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate, NRC-FOSS [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22/23, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
