*A Critique of Qubes*
Before discussing Qubes, I want to give you a bit of background about
me. I do not want to tell my life-story, I doubt anyone is interested.
However, I want you to know "where I am coming from" and what I want
from Qubes. I am

I should have been clearer in indicating how far the boot process got:
The text messages were displayed starting in the top left corner of the screen
until the screen cleared and the Qubes Q-logo was displayed with a progress bar
underneath.
The boot process continued until the progress indicat

I am one of those Qubes newbies. I do have a "computer" background, having
started out on Mainframe computers — I have been retired for over 20 years;
however, I now use my computer as a tool (though I do some website development
to keep the neurons firing). I do not need a highly locked down co

I want to say thank you to those members of Qubes Users who have had the
patience to answer my questions and solve my problems getting Qubes up and
running. I have been particularly pleased that this is a forum where there are
few, if any, unhelpful responses to questions and few questions/reque
I encountered an "interesting" phenomenon which could be a defect (bug) or
expected behaviour (an odd "feature"). If a defect, it could be in the file
manager under Debian (Nautilus?).
If I attempt to rename a file in ~/local/share/applications/ when I save the
change, ".desktop" is appended to

Once I had Qubes up and running with Thunderbird and enough basics to be able,
