Friends and co-workers see what I'm using. If I can show them how convenient GNU/Linux can be for everyday work and other things (even editing Video!), they get the right impression.
Hmm.... I think the impression they get is a matter of communication:
a) GNU/Linux is good because a lot of proprietary software like Flashplayer or Adobe Reader runs on it b) Free Software is a nice toy but if you want to do the really cool stuff you have to resort to proprietary software anyway c) Free Software can do a lot, but there's still bastards that force me to use proprietary software, we must do something against that
I am well aware about *your* communication about this ;-) but I wanted to make this explicit for all readers: if you aren't carefule about this, it can backfire.
Thanks, Reinhard
