Comment Wouldn't most people understand beer better? (Score 1) 274

It's easy to go to the store and pick up case of beer, buy it, bring it home and drink it. You also pay a deposit on the containers. (M$)

You can however brew beer. It takes time and energy. The process is sometimes tedious. Nothing between cleaning the containers, to mixing and heating the ingredients, to putting it into the second container to get rid of the yeast sludge, or even finally bottling. It is time consuming. The end result is pretty satisfying. (BSD/Linux)

There are attempts to make the brewing process easier. Ex: Mr.Beer, but they are hokey and can be expected to be well... second rate. (Lindows)

Where does this lead? The majority of people will buy Budweiser... it's the industry standard, you can't go wrong. Even if it's boring, it's beer. Did I mention, it's easy?
