[Trisquel-users] Re : How inconvenient freedom can be?

[lcerf]

I have been exclusively using Trisquel GNU/Linux for five years. And so have  
my wife and my parents. I am a university professor in computer science, my  
wife is a journalist and both my parents are accountants. I take care of  
administrating their systems... but there is so little to do with Trisquel! I  
must spend a few hours per system and per year, top. No virus, no malware,  
every common application installed by default, more applications that are  
three clicks away in the Synaptic package manager, a backup system that you  
setup in three clicks too, an helpful community, etc.

In my opinion, Trisquel GNU/Linux is far more user-friendly than Windows!  
However, you have to learn that simple way. For example, many beginners do  
not know about the package manager and try to install application the Windows  
way: search the Web, download an installer, search for that installer on the  
disk, launch it, click "Next" a gazillion times including for accepting an  
unacceptable license, clean the menu for all the crap that was added, ...  
congratulations: you have just installed something that probably is malware!
