I dunno, you can't expect people to buy a car and install the airbag themselves?
You can't sell a non-secure pc and tell john doe he has to secure it himself...
Then there's the tale of the two elderly female relatives. One was given a PC by my father, the other received a Mac from me. Starting out, they were both uncomfortable with technology, but the one who got the PC was generally more adept and motivated to learn. It's now a few years later, and the PC user hardly ever turns it on, and on those rare occations is still as likely to need to call me to get anything done as not. Meanwhile, the Mac user replaced the old hand-me-down Macintosh IIci that I gave her with a brand-new iMac, which she uses every day. She almost never needs my help with anything (the last problem she had was with an Epson printer about a month ago), and she's accomplishing stuff I never would have guessed she would have accomplished.
You could wonder what might have happened if you switched (no pun intended) the pc with the mac.
Would the pc-woman be accomplishing stuff you never would have guessed, or would the mac be lying in a closet, gathering dust?
... Particularly given that most Linuxians fall into the "don't like groupware" camp?...
It doesn't matter if we fall into the "don't like groupware" camp. If implementation of a non-MS Exchange-Like OSS system is possible, why spend thousands of dollars to Exchange ?
