Will CNR be part of a default desktop installation? If yes, I will have to seriously consider abandoning Ubuntu. Why? Ubuntu - Linux for human beings and not Linux to confuse the crap out of folks with more software installation methods than you can shake a stick at. Other vendors have it right on this with many other software companies ... Here is the way you do it - The one way. How can anything be for human beings when you can get "I installed this via this and this via that and now I have an issue" - It will cause so many problems for both users and add a large overhead to the developers. Simplicity, stability and consistency is paramount I feel for the basic and new user. Forget people like us who are experienced in systems and IT generally</blockquote><div> Wonderfully put.  Someone should take a note of this - it's so right. </div> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> CNR maybe yes, but in MOTU as a user installable app and not in the core of the OS!
