It may not be representative of what those people would use in Linux. Linuxconf really is a terrible tool. It would also be rather awkward and embarrassing if it locks up during our presentation like it does tend to do randomly, especially within the network configuration options. Red Hat dropped Linuxconf for a reason. Its design is fundamentally flawed, so they gave up on trying to fix its bugs and moved on to writing their own tools. I really think SuSE's YaST2, Mandrake DrakConf, Red Hat 8.0 redhat-config tools and Webmin would be much better to demonstrate. Relying on Linuxconf is a terrible, terrible mistake.
