Can we please do away with running as root by default? I dislike Puppy
for the same reason (although I run it in my woodshop just for the odd
computing task and completely non-connected to anything), but it does
at least run on low-spec hardware (which I have there).
BTW, wasn't that once a selling point for Ubuntu, that third-world
countries with second hand and/or low-spec hardware could use it and
love it? Wha' happen'?
