    Yeap, for sure .... but the problem (as I see it) is that Linux is
    soooo flexible that everyone modifies the BASE LINUX OS to suit THEIR
    needs (Me, Mageia!! eventually) whereas MicroSoft releases Windows "AND
    YOU *WILL* USE IT THE WAY *WE* WANT"!!

    If only Linux Devs could get together!! ;-P Pipe Dreams!!

    But thank you Devs!!

    A lot of the noise is "Ubuntu based distributions" and "Fedora based distributions". In my opinion, those should not be distributions, they
    should be packages to load on top of those mainstream distributions.
    In the cases that I am aware of, they are basically tweaks to the GUI to
    suit a particular taste.

    Reducing the noise would help newbies understand the field much better.
