Yeah, that'll convince 'em to just go with the 'Everything' install. Oh, I know it's dreadfully easy, after you've installed, configured, and learned to use it. But, that's the thing quite a few folks would just as happily avoid in the midst of getting anything working in the first place. And, of course, the apt HOWTO won't tell you what to use for reading mail, browsing the web, etc. Of course, neither does the "everything" install, but it does take yet one more thing to do off the list of things to do. Not everyone is concerned about installing things they will never use. Not everyone has a minimalist prejudice. > Hth > > -----Original Message----- > From: speakup-bounces@braille.uwo.ca > [mailto:speakup-bounces@braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of hank smith > Sent: Monday, July 25, 2005 3:18 PM > To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. > Subject: Re: Speakup installation > > > hale apt-get > hale hale hale smily > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Thomas Stivers" > To: > Sent: Monday, July 25, 2005 11:33 AM > Subject: Re: Speakup installation > > > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > > Hash: RIPEMD160 > > > > On Mon, Jul 25, 2005 at 11:10:09 AM -0700, Sean McMahon wrote: > > > Good point, aren't computers supposed to be easy?
