      From 1996 to 2005, I bought SuSE Linux and Open Suse Novell, 
considering thus participate in the war against WindOverDose affort. I was 
rich at the time! I have bought / paid for the wind?

      The Geek want to improve their system. Anything inconsistent with 
the "popular" user, the "grand public"?

      The developers teams must leave the projects private despots. They are 
idiots and sufficient, and do not know they are wrong because they believe 
themselves incapable of error. They proclaim themselves experts  
in "windows management", and as such decide for others, especially 
for "ordinary" users, and possibly, for "ordinary" (-: Trinity team) 
developers. There was one who spoke in these lists. In my opinion, KDE team 
committed suicide and killed Suse with him.

      At the time Lisa + Macinsosh were models for Microsoft, everything was 
getting better [1985 .. 1995]. Now, Microsoft "Vista" (and following) is 
the model for Linux: how, starting from the mediocrity, do not get 
mediocrity?
