What u call "lazy", i call "efficient". People will learn Linux - or
anything else - when doing so looks like a better deal than staying with
Windows, or anything else. A "pretty" o/s (in the comp.sci. sense) is not a
reason. An o/s that does the job better, easier and with less learning,
would be a reason. Having lots of apps would be a reason. Availability of
support would be a reason. Good security would.
