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.

But I am not sure that the two would mix.  Too much information for the true newbie 
who just wants to use the system.  Good thoughts though.
