[osol-mktg] Re: Solaris for my Country

well, it looks like yet another marketing campain, where you can read, how good one or another product is. but it's not working. sorry to tell you that but think a little:
if I'm a average user of computers and get this booklet then... then what - I see that it looks good, it is beautiful and so on. but why should I change my system. to get it for free - I invested a lot of time to learn my system what I'm using now - why should I start learning again?
this is the main problem for alternative systems - all my knowledge is based on windows (with a probability over 90%) and all my friends are using it....

maybe you should think a little differently - make a demo-disk what you justy put into your computer and you see, what is the product.
don't try to give a impression that it's free - people don't care - try to make another point - there is less games - good for enterpreneurs because people are working, no crashes, easy to management - small company do not need a specialist (some geek from university ;) ), no viruses, faster, workes well on older computer, something like this. It should convince me that this is something I may, just may, be needing.

I give a excample - I had a older computer in my office and wanted to try solaris... I downloaded the iso files and made cd-s. I putted cd on... and nothing... it started and .... then stopped for some reason... why I do not know, I do not had time yet to try again - the result is that almost a month a haven't try it again. I putted linux on that computer, for now it's okey. I'm interested in solaris for other reasons, but now think what happens if I get your booklet....
