I think you are the only who is frustrated here. >Let me recap: > >Your (wrong) point: > >People should spend time to learn how to operate computers & their programs. I stand by my point, but it's taken a bit out of context so let me add "if they expect to have any serious use of it". >My point: > >People have better things to do. Using a computer is the *means* not the *end*. Right, but I still have to take lessons to drive a car, even though the car is just a means to get from A to B. I do not expect by default to be able to operate such a machine. Don't get me wrong though, I fully support the idea that software should be as easy to use as possible. In fact this is why I often advocate Arena over Winboard, I know it will be easier for newbies to relate to. -S. >anthony
