   I haven't tested the latest LL, but I like the idea of a distro dev/ing   
   tools, particularly the way MX/AntiX have done it. I will be surprised   
   if LL dev/s did it that well.   
      
   In a review of an earlier LL at FOSS, the comments section has some   
   worthwhile discussions of the concept of 'transitioning' Win users to   
   linux which has some good ideas for the transition tutor for the tutee,   
   which of course can apply to those 'jurisdictions' such as in .eu which   
   have w/ successes and failures have an IT dept which wants to transition   
   a 'population' to linux from Win.   
      
   The way to do it is to transition them from the software first, then the OS.
