Women do not argue. They feel. You have to appreciate women who have learned to
survive in a man's world of argumentation.
They also don't use Linux (though they represent about 30% of computer
users, only 0.3% of Linuxers are female).
Now there's a tought: Actually *ASK* them what they want from an OS.

OR stop telling everyone about how technically great it is and all the things
you can do with it. Simply point out they do not have to do a thing and it will
work better than Windows. Women don't buy cars because of technical specs. They
buy for safety and reliability. Therefore no more blue screens, no more loss of
data, no more disk crashes. Saying the words cheap and free never hurt either.

For most people if they never used a computer they would not know the
difference if it was Windows or linux nor should they have to know.

....until they discover the CLI is needed for many basic operations in
Linux.

Open a terminal window. But I can't think of one important CLI app that does not have a graphics wrapper available. FTP? gFTP as one of many and browsers have the protocol for getting. For quick work I use gFTP myself to be certain I get the right files in the right directories. yum? yumex.

Wouldn't go to that extreme but they should all move to Israel now,
which is what they claim they want anyway, and we gave them at huge
expense.

They want to make Palestinians dead -- and Lebanese -- and do so at every opportunity. I see no reason they should get special treatment.
