I've mentioned before that I have made some boxen for my mom and grandparents using Mandrake. It works great and I get to automate a lot of tasks and hide some system stuff that they don't need to be worried about. Aurora is great for them. Actually, it really was part of getting them excited about Linux. The normal boot up sequence can be unnerving if they are already worried about somehow breaking the computer. :) Plus, for people like my mom (a little more computer savvy than my gramps but who loves colors) the eye-candy is much appreciated. -Paul Rodr�guez _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
