My intial comments on your comments would be that my intention was that this be a
document you could hand your grandmother, wife, computer illiterate brother-in-law and
it would allow them to *use* linux as it is. I think some of your additions would
fall into an intermediate range and for that it would also be nice to have a document.

who just wants to use the system. Good thoughts though.
