It's still got alot of the old restrictions, that blocks it to be used by 'anybody' .

On the good side, several distributions come with quite nice Packet Managers, which makes working with them alot easier.

Still, many (otherwise powerful) applications lack their own GUI's, and the connection itself between the various GUI's and the Applications is still very loose, hence pulling down usability alot Roll Eyes

But for something that's free, already an extremely good Operating System, especially since I have quite alot of Client Systems Wink
