This is really nutty. I don't get it that a system must have some sort of
arbitrary difficulty to be considered legitament. What's up with that? I
took a human factors course in CS in college (VAX VMS/Apollo Suns (no
windows around)). We studied lawsuit cases where system failures caused
injury and death, the cause of these failures were do to this "arbitrary"
complexity of the system, and the resolutions for those failures were
typcially was to understand that the human being was the weakest part of the
system; consquently, it was up to the system to reasonably guard against
human failure.
hmm...

Thats true, I believe that linux should not become like windoze
windoze sucks and makes people lazy. Been their done that and now am
learning linux. I installed suse linux 7 pro and with 3417 apps it took
about 6.5 gb of my hard disk. There is so much in linux. I looked
through the minues in kde and was surprised at how many apps I have
installed now. I am having a ball learning linux. When I learn't windoze
it was easy it does every thing for you. Linux lets you make mistakes
and teaches you how to fix these mistakes, Linux is the real os
My 2cents worth
