He has a point. Windows 95, with all its falut, still is a very 
user friendly system. If you have fully compliant system, usuall you 
won't have any problems installing it. I still strongly believe that 
Linux can mold into a desktop much like Windows 95 in its good ways. A 
user friendly interface lying ontop of Linux may be a great way get 
people's attention. I really think this is something that had been truely 
neglected in most of the distribtuion I seem so far. Perhaps, it is 
something worth working on? Maybe to entice more people to switch to 
Linux as an alternative to Windows 95. (It is more feasible now, with 
Corel WordPerfect, Applixware, ICQ (using Java), and KDE desktop.) If 
someone is working on it, please let me know. A Linux for "MAC" user. 
(not to say MAC user are dummies, but user friendly..)
