Because people use it and expect me to know about it in order to teach it. If gnome is like Windows, that is fine, I hope that it will be more stable and not have a tendency to crash as often. No, you're absolutely right. People learn in different ways and they need different things from their computers. Besides, I would never say that someone is bad simply because he or she used Windows. There is much, much more to an individual than what OS he or she chooses to use. Ann P. -- Ann K.
