Well, maybe not. I was not talking about Ubuntu, rather all versions of
GNU/Linux out there. And some of these, Suse Pro, for instance, costs a fair
bit of cash. With Suse, even though Yast does a goodish job, you still have
to hit terminal for some things which could be coded into a GUI setup tool.

Elitism does exist 'out there' to see it in action hang out with Linux
people and mention you rather like Windows... I'm not attacking them by
saying that, it's just sometimes, 'they' don't see an OS in the way a,
'normal' user would. I really like GNU/Linux, this is why I would like it to
be more assessable to a wider user base.
