I think, it is not nessassary to change Debian from an expert-distro to
a User-Distro. It would be nice to have a smooth configuratinable distro
for both groups of computer-users.

It is important to let changes made by hand/vi/dpkg and to provide
configuration tools for "desktop-users" for simple installing and
configuration. Some distros have only the one way solution:
	You have to configure your system by hand 
		xor
	you have to configure your system with some tools.

this would be a nice feature for "desktop-users" ... yes
