Oh Mo... on attitude... Hey you posted at 4 in the morning. Get a life. I know of what I speak. Look at the time of my post. Mo, you are no dummy and my I believe.... was not ment to refer to you but to point out that many reviews deal in opionion and not fact and most who read have no factual basis to put a review in context.

So as to the Linux Planet reviews. What do I decide? To me usability is the true value so what is the value of which they speak. But useability of a computer is in running applications. Everything else is support of that end. RPM is a big deal in access to Applications.

As I said before... the redhat package manager is 3 to 4 times simpler and far more reliable in installing packages than other unix package install methods.

Applications are useability. The ease of use of the command or mouse clicks to launch don't matter if you don't have the application. One of the keys to useability of Linux is the simplicty and flexibility of the command line and layered gui attempts to obscure it may actually get in the way of useability. To start app doda, open Xterm by clicking on xterm button and type doda. Now dat is complicated.

So in the conflicts of what the reviewer said, what is debunk in the smoke and mirrors of verbal babble speak.

Mo, I invite you and all to read my watman.com and debunk it. Comments are welcome and negative is good as it forces me to think.

Tom Watson tosiwmee.
