In defence of the Wine developers, the focus onproprietary games was due to two
factors:

I looked at Wine about 8 years ago in order to run the very few
proprietary apps I needed on Linux. I haven't looked at it lately, but
back then, it seemed that the wine devs were focused on getting
proprietary games working, not apps such as ms Access. I gave up on
wine when the equivalent L

Hi :)
I think the documentation assumes that anyone using Gnu&Linux, or anything
else other than Windows is canny enough to know how to use whatever they
have got to open a chromium web-browser, or at least arsy enough to try.

Yes, it is not a Chrome list, but as the OP, I wondered about Chrome and

would like to see some app that would be based on LO/AOO and deal with

In 2013, Chomebooks accounted for 21% of the notebook sales.
If the printer does not show up on the list, generally you can still

Well the lady showed up and she tells me that her printer will plug into
the router, but I did not set it up since I would have to go to her
place to do so.
There is some confusion about whether or not she needs to set the
printers up with the Win7 system first, according to the documentatio

Hi :)
Is she likely to be happier with Windows 8? Just because this mailing list
doesn't know how to configure Chrome to print to her printer doesn't mean
it can't be done r isn't easy. It just means we don't have the expertise
here yet.

yes, but the lady I am dealing with is a person who did not know the
difference between ChromeOS and Windows, let alone would want to try to

She does not understand even how to set up a wifi connection properly on

I'm quite pleased with Crouton. It has some quirks here and there, but once
you understand them, it really works well. Neither Crouton or Chrubuntu are
exactly like using Ubuntu on a typical desktop of notebook, but I do
consider both of them to be young projects which will only get better with
