    Matt PC? Have they ever considered Mike PC, or even Jennifer PC? I bet there are more Steve PC's than I can shake a stick at (and I can shake a stick at a lot of PCs!).

    This is the problem with Linux, always being targeted at the needs of a smallish audience.

    Joe PC would use Microsoft. Probably has a Dell, drinks Budwiser, watches wrasslin.

    This would be Timmy The Computer Hippie. He drinks Red Bull and builds his own boxen. He like to watch Friends and Ally McBeal.
