 A MS Client doesn't mean there wouldn't be a linux client. It could be 
 in java, or even perl/tk, and run on most platforms.

 I think it's a good idea to some extent. A centeral repository of user
 submitted config rules for their hardware and misc linux setup, categoriezed
 by topics such as hardware, servers, the X Window System... and 
 subcategorized within down to specifics.

 Kind of like how linux.com has a whole config & tweaking sections that
 gives tips and hints and shares information others have discovered to
 help new users set their system up and get it running nice. Except 
 this new system would actually do the work as well.

 It could get very complex though, every system setup is very different,
 and therefore things configured within that system vary.
