[net.cog-eng] user-friendly?

ark@rabbit.UUCP (09/28/83)

It occurred to me last night that by borrowing two current buzzwords
somewhat out of context, we can describe the UNIX* system pretty well:

			"expert-friendly"

Actually, I'm partial to user-hostile ignorance-based amateur systems  :-)

* UNIX is a Trademark of AT&T Bell Laboratories

Several months ago, I was talking to Matt Reilly of CMU E.E. about his
new host software for the Cm* multiprocessor.  Says Matt:

	"It has an extremely friendly user interface.  The first
	thing it does when you start it up is say, 'Hey, like the shirt!'"
