But 95% of the desktop market *IS* running windows. It's one thing to train 40% of the people who use Linux. It's another thing to train 95% of the people who use computers. Think about it. I agree that single click is better "once you get used to it", but I still prefer doubleclick because I like to be able to select with single click without launching. I guess at this point, it's more "I'm used to this, you should learn to be like me" than anything else. Not wrong, just different. Blue skies...
