We're all guilty if that from time to time :) Yeah, I agree 100% with you here. 
For me (as a Sys Admin) a simple WYSIWYG HTML editor is plenty and Its probably 
plenty for most users.

Fair point, if its going to be a substantial chunk of work to get it going, you 
may as get what you want. Thats is partly why I use a MacBook as my main 
machine - dual booting between OSX and Nevada. There is nothing comparable to 
iTunes and all the media support in OSX in either Solaris, Linux or even 
Windows as far as I'm concerned. Maybe if someone did as good a job of 
simplifying the zen setup as with zfs then it would be more accessible to a 
wider audience. Although, again, that would have a negative impact on the 
Solaris desktop. You can't win :)
