Quote:We don't use "profiles" with firefox, too risky having personal info out there.I don't understand what profiles have got to do with "personal info out there" a profile is just a folder on your hdd, I keep my profiles on a data partition so that any OS on my machine uses the same profile. She could use the same profile for windows and Linux.
Quote:I wouldnt want to use the CLI either, lol. How primitive i believe, havn't we advanced beyond that yetWhen windows moved from dos(terminal) to a windows GUI they buried the "command line" deep in the menu away from normal users but Linux users still keep getting told to use it.
The taskbar/panel has barely changed since win 95.
I'm hoping/expecting Ikey Docherty to change a lot of things with Evolve OS with his new Linux base and budgie desktop and window manager, he recently mentioned a wacking big menu even if it covered the desktop which sounds like big icons to click on and the menu being seperated from the panel at last. No more bl**dy tree menus and lines of text to click on?
One of my ladies just uses a browser and skype so they both auto start but I put three big icons on her desktop, Browser, skype and a big red shut down button in case she closed an app by mistake and I only put the windows buttons and an analogue clock in the panel.
She's stiil happy with her machine but it's new computor users I work with not ones with bad habits.
