Right you are- more user friendly is good. Improved interfaces are always good. But expecting the entire Linux world to aim for folks who can barely operate a TV remote makes no sense. As many folks have said, there are distributions aimed at unsophisticated users. Having choices is what makes Linux so cool.

All the rhetoric about "beating Microsoft" is rather overblown, I think. There is plenty of room for everyone. It's a Microsoft attitude to think that There Can Be Only One, and all others must be crushed.
