Look idiot, have you ever seen a DEFAULT Windows XP desktop, no manufacturer, no techy playing..
You get 1 icon, thats the recycle bin on the bottom right, and a crappy intro on how to use it, then msn messenger keeps flashing up, then other windows keep flashing up, saying do this do that..

Install any new big distro, say SuSE, log into kde, you get a help screen, all icons on the bottom, all icons on the desktop and 99% of stuff preconfigured, click mozilla, on the web...

And yes muppet thats a default install with all standard settings, basically a Next,Next Next!!!

Please before you post think first!
