The learning curve on learning the OS shouldn't be really that steep if X is used. There are even many govt users right now that only uses what they were taught to use. They don't explore the OS and only use the computer for the tasks given to them, except of course for the occasional email,web browsing (for those blessed with a connection), and a few rounds of solitaire. With users like these, it would easy to switch them over to a new os and have them work with minimal difficulty. It is the more knowledgeable users that will pose a stiffer resistance. They are the people who found certain activities that could be done that was not explained to them directly (irc, p2p apps, etc).
Nobody is too old to learn. The moment a person stops learning is the moment he stops living. ciao! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Ariz Jacinto Sent: 21. helmikuuta 2003 11:01 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [plug] Re: plug digest, Vol 1 #2167 - 17 msgs <snip> tama k dyan, pero ang magiging isyu ngayon nyan ay kung "willing" ba yun mga user na gamitin ang gnu/linux? karamihan yata sa gobyerno ay matanda n para mag aral pa ulit ng panibagong OS. dito na papasok yun mga Linux training institutions / Helpdesk para kumita. <snip> _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
