Sorry for this Dale, but if this list gets to the end of the year and
finds a less well thought out question than the one you just asked
then I'll be surprised. Unfortunately I won't be here to read it if it
comes along.
To answer your question Dale, that 82 year old woman uses Gentoo
because it's what I put on her laptop. It's the perfect OS for someone
who does limited web browsing & browser-based email. (GMail/Hotmail)
With that I bid this list goodbye. I made it almost 10 years on the
list, and have run Gentoo almost exclusively for longer than that.
Yeah, I've loaded and tried other distros along the way, Fedora,
Funtoo are the two I remember, but none have compared. This list has
helped me to no end and I thank everyone for that.
Should anyone want to get in touch please do. (FirstLast@gmail)
Cheers & goodbye,
Mark
