Besides this, Gary, there is the problem that the people I am talking about are computer illiterates, and proud of it. The most complex thing the can do is configure, make, make install. And believe me, they need two or three hours of training, before they can use the console to configure, make and make install. Don't ask them to learn where to install this and that.
