I typically do, but I'm an intellectual elitist, and am quite mean-spirited, and I nearly always come across like that :-D

Define psuedo-intellectual then.

Linux was originally designed for people who want to learn the inner-workings of their OS. Last year or so people started adopting it as their desktop systems so it's gainned more user-friendlyness. I find nothing wrong with Fluxbox or KDE/Gnome, because they're completely customizeable. For all OSS, if you don't like it, change it, and the same holds true for WM's. I think Windows' UI is extremely ugly.

I would never try using an operating system that had great UI unless I had access to how it worked. If you think that M$ made it in the market because it hid the system settings and inner workings, why aren't you using their operating systems today?
