It's not Arch's policy to make Linux user-friendly. "Whereas many GNU/Linux distributions attempt to be more user-friendly, Arch Linux has always been, and shall always remain user-centric." - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Linux#User_centrality We indeed should avoid a harsh tone of voice, but de facto only one subscriber just contributed a harsh tone of voice. He's known to do that now and then, but usually we aren't sensitive plants and don't make mountains out of molehills. Nobody's perfect. However, the above quote is _not_ harsh, it's just reflects the information given by the Wiki. Also from the Wiki: Arch "is suited to anyone with a do-it-yourself attitude that's willing to spend some time reading the documentation and solving their own problems." (btw. shouldn't it read "who's willing"? English isn't my native language) I like to add, there's no need to be a power user, nerd or coder ;). Regards, Ralf
