This is actually quite sad. If Linux is to ever become an alternative to |
11 |
Windows on workstations for regular users (such as managers, secretars, |
12 |
or any other type of people who think they don't need to "learn |
13 |

Personally I would love to be able to contribute to something like this. |

Maybe there are many others like me. Big companies have been investing |
17 |
into linux as a server and maybe it's time the desktop needs some |
18 |
attention too. |
