Re: Linux, fast

On Tue, 25 Apr 2006, Chris suggested tentatively:
There are three tasks that your average ECDL user will use a PC/computer
for: 1) writing text documents, 2) surf the web, 3) read/write emails.
Outside of work (or maybe /in/ for some people ;-) ) you can add 4)
play games.

But that's all *I* use a computer for.

(Hang on, when you said `text documents', do you not consider computer
languages to be text?)
