"Linux use is growing faster than a penguin in a herring fishery. However, I felt there were many issues that needed to be fixed before a wider audience could effectively use our beloved operating system. With this in mind, I asked for some input from those just starting to make the transition into our community."

"The feedback I received was phenomenal! There were over 20 comments posted here on Linux.com, 20 more when the story was picked up at Linux Today, as well as more than 30 e-mails! Rest assured that even if you haven't gotten a response, that I read them all."

"It was rewarding to see Linux from a perspective I had nearly forgotten. There were many good ideas and suggestions from these new users. A couple themes appeared throughout many of these e-mails."
