I don't think anyone wants to remove what's attracted the current user base. We don't have to do things the "Linux" way. For example, while sysinstall definitely needs an update, we still NEED a text mode admin tool that is simple and efficient to use. Even if a GUI installer or admin tool comes along, no one is arguing that the text mode tools need to vanish to make way for it. David
