>From a "Standards" thread I saw this : 

     "Linux should be as easy as Windows"

I would like to point out that this is a thinking problem. A shift in thinking is required. 

That should say : 

    "Open source and Free software should be as easy as Windows"

In this way we allow someone running BSD, Solaris or some port of Debian to an old Dec AlphaServer will have the same level of functionality provided standards are adhered to. Once programmers begin to see everything in the light of Linux then we can also kiss goodbye the opportunity for portability to other OS types.
