Yeah...

Apparently several patches have been issued by various orgs to mitigate 
some of the issues he had.


When I saw they were doing this challenge, I was thrilled.

When I saw they were starting with gaming, I was very apprehensive.


Still think gaming should have been further along in the process so they 
were more comfortable with their chosen environments.


One thing I vehemently disagreed with was the commentary saying that 
Linux needs to be more like Windows if it wants more uptake.

NO!  That presumes Windows is doing things right. Maybe there are places 
where it is, but generally I disagree.


Analogy: I'm trying to learn a bit of Cantonese.  If I suggested that 
tones indicate emphasis and not entirely different words, and Chinese 
should be more like English in that regard, ... not going to be acceptable.
