Oh. See, I thought that was an assumed part of the conversation. ;)


Like you, I generally end up reconfiguring anyway. My point though...
Perhaps a futurist analogy is required:

I purchase an android at the local "Target Harvey Norman" store. It doesn't
come into my house and immediately start cleaning the floors, it asks me
what *I'd* like it to do, which is much closer to a foot massage than having
my floors cleaned.

Why can't a distro do the same? When I bring a computer into my house, I
don't want it to give me infotising channels on my desktop. :)


Until MS gets bundled with motherboards and cases, I'm in the clear. Of
course, you can always pick up a Linux CD that way! :)
