Laziness is main point. I was talking with my coworker today. He need to do Remote Desktop on another machine from Linux terminal. Now, he was aking me is there any Graphical way to it rather than typing

rdesktop -f i.p.a.d.d.r.e.s.s ?

Its rather boring and infact slower to do it the GUI way :/ There are several UIs for it including a UI specifically for rdesktop and one built right into KDE :P

so it looks like the laziness was on our side in not pointing out that the Graphical way was available. Linux is great - as long as geeks leave it alone. Especially for the chosen few who use it as their first OS, they lap it up
