I don't think I would use that analogy. After having cleaned out their toilet
they're not likely to call you again every few days to ask how the flusher works or to
tell you they tried flushing a whole roll of TP and have run into difficulties. :-) :-)
LoL!......gross! But I understand, and while I DO go around "preaching"
the Linux Gospel....i DON'T ever volunteer or even advise people to
stray from Windows......if they make the suggestion...or even a
request...i try to point them in the same direction someone pointed
me.....the "Take The Risk And Do It Yourself....You Just Might Learn
Something" mentality...this way...if / when things go sour....they have
no one to blame but themselves!....I'm more of an "advisor" in that
regard.....but I won't touch it unless it is an absolute necessity!
