Hi Terry.

Ok, this email (ant this thread) is getting long, and this time I have 
to agree with everything (or at least can't argue with solid points on 
anything) that you have stated.  I think it is safe to say that for 
different reasons we both more or less agree about the majority of 
issues with Linux, Usuability, and MS.  I like your point that the 
distro vendors should be the ones that come up with the wizards.  It 
would be a good value add for them.  And that is probably why I like 
SuSE so much.  YaST is a good attempt at being the WIZARD to end all 
Wizards.  I don't have to worry about more than just what the different 
config settings should be, not what files need to be edited, what their 
internal syntax is, that kind of stuff.  And, while not necessarily 
agreeing with them, at least you (and hopefully the others on this list) 
listened and considered the points that I raised, which is all that I 
was actually after with my original post.

Regards (and Thanks for allowing me to stand on the "soapbox"),
Steve
