I love Linux. Let me say that first. There is no better OS, and I have OS X, and Windows. The only thing preventing Linux from overtaking the free world is the archaic method of program installation. I know, In know, there's a jillion Distro's, that you need to compile for yours. Take the average Windows user though, first off, they have no idea what a "Distro'" is. (short for distribution, a version of linux - there are tons), and anything short of "Click here to install" sends them into a tailspin of frustration. I don't mind it, but geeze, terminal windows?, ./configure's?, make?, make install?, and where the hell did it *put* my program???? I still can't get any DVD players to work, and I've installed 3 of them. (I must be missing something with the skin setup for mPlayer, because I've done exactly what they say and still get skin errors.
By the way, if you install KDE 3.5, and can't find your trash, go to the tool bar, right click and select "add applet". You'll find it there.
