(the above statement defines the 'user' as techie, and everybody non techie as idiots / ignorant. That is an attitude. A destructive attitude) *Being ignorant friendly and idiot friendly is the best selling point*. If the interface and stability is as easy and solid as an ATM system, everybody uses it,then every Hardware/Software manufacturer start providing drivers/compatible code. I wont ask my grandmother to learn code,may be not even to stare onto monitor for more than 10min. If the interface can be extended to the way familiar to her,it will work. That would be an achievement. And that wont make her Idiot. Think of the whole population.Hope nobody answer with an exception again:an ATM security breach. I refer only of the priorities they gave while designing the ATM system. Everything which has been made complex** are not idot-friendly: whether it be Kathakali, abstract art.. .. ..and everything idiot friendly ---like mainstream films--- has won in reach. **[for valid reasons or just personal perceptions of how things should be] Just a quote in the last decade on the web from an unknown source... ;- > > > > ---------------------------------------- > Freedom Is The Only Law... > ---------------------------------------- > Subin Sebastian > College of Engineering > Munnar - 685612 > +91-944-6475826 > > -- > "Freedom is the only law". > "Freedom Unplugged" > http://www.ilug-tvm.org > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "ilug-tvm" group. > To control your subscription visit > http://groups.google.co.in/group/ilug-tvm/subscribe > To post to this group, send email to ilug-tvm@googlegroups.com > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > ilug-tvm-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > > > > For details visit the google group page: > http://groups.google.com/group/ilug-tvm?hl=en > -- #//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////# "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" Leonardo da Vinci #//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////# -- "Freedom is the only law".
