Yea, I guess they could very well use GnoRPM's interface, etc.. I just don't
like the idea of them needing GnoRPM to be SUID root to do it.. ;-P
And no, mankind *doesn't* like to learn something new and different. They
want it available in 5 minutes via a driveup window. They want someone else to
grow it, someone else to ship it, someone else to cook it, and someone else to
deliver it, so they can consume it immediatly.. Hence, the popularity of
automatic transmisions, and the prevelence of female drivers who just can't
drive a stick.. (No offence intended to those who CAN, it's just I've seen
more women then men that fit into this catagory)
