On Jan 20 Michael Hipp was heard saying: ->My point is that we need to make this stuff *simple*. Rather than brag about ->how we're able to do hard things. Let's brag about how an ordinary joe ->doesn't need to do hard things 'cause it's all easy (in Linux).
*** One, I don't see why ordinary Joe has to be able to do it. He doesn't do it with Windows as it comes pre-installed so I don't see why he should be able to do it with Linux. If he wants simplicity there're enough different sorts of Mac's waiting for him. Two, what you reffering to wasn't all that difficult... if only people would stop keeping the cliche alive that typing is more "difficult" than clicking and three, I don't see why we have to follow Windows (as in "particular way of using your PC") and copy it. Linux is not Microsoft Windows and there's no point in trying to make it look and behave like one. Read also David's mail about his PCMCIA experience.
