I agree with Bruno at the fun and the other use of f... part,also I agree with Helen at the graphic part,why don't you try to give a picture of people having fun instead of texting it? I still get nervous when I hear Ubuntu's "linux for human beings" and I think "Linux for the masses" or Fedora's "Fedora fails… and that’s a good thing!" and I think "oh yes?for whom?", I first heard this after trying to install Fedora 64 bit for a whole afternoon and failed because of a bug or something that existed for my processor. I believe you get my point ;-) Kostas
