Lets review what I originally said: "Sadly enough, most people use computers to consume and not produce, and out of those who do produce, a large majority only needs a browser." ... and then: "Most people (both at home and at work) only use the computer to exchange text information (E.g. mails, documents, accounting information, fill forms, etc) and light multimedia files - in which case, the move toward web-based-only-software is -well- under way." Now, in my view, produce *isn't* limited to content production (as in multimedia, code), but also includes text based production (which includes lawyers, accountants, insurance, etc) that are already being moved to web-base software. Now, we can spend the next 500 messages arguing if an accountant is considered "production" or "consumption" (in which case, Good luck and God speed), or we can return the original context of this thread: Where does the computing world move and how does Fedora fit in? (1. Web-based-software and mobile platforms; 2. [In my view:] Catering for the needs for the remaining desktop users). - Gilboa -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
