PS; I don't consider Linux (at this time) as a ?consumer desktop OS? since one has to build/compile source codes not just consume (i.e. "obtain and play" mentality).


What is this thing non-linuxers have with how Linux works?

For reference: The last year I have had to install 1 (ONE) application (that I actually needed. Playing with beta versions of things that might turn out to be a dead end doesn't count, because a user doesn't have to do that) via source. Everything else, including games, has been installed in the usual manner (apt-get install tuxracer for instance). WHY DO WINDOWS USERS KEEP CLAIMING LINUX IS ABOUT COMPILNG SOFTWARE???

God damn hippies ;-)
