I think the thing your missing Michael is the fact that everyone wants there computer to behave like windows and be like windows programs. For example, the computer should freeze up for no reason. Also when RPMs are installed on things like Mandrake or Red Hat, icons in KDE and Gnome should appear on the desktop for things like "20,000 free hours of AOL" ____________________ BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ ___________________________________________________________________ List Info: http://uug.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uug-list
