Very true, and the proof is that I keep a Kubuntu system up so I can
answer the occasional question for some friends, who would not be using
Linux at all if it were not for Ubuntu. Those questions are getting
fewer and fewer, BTW.

But I do sometimes get frustrated, just as a mechanic would when told
that a car "makes a whooshing sound", or something similar, by a
non-mechanic customer.
