I agree. I would have to give a lot more explanation for the computer
illiterate. That's where tools like aptitude come in. Guess I'll have to
look at that and come up with a click and drool version :).

cafod is meant for those familiar with *NIX-like systems that don't know the
admin ins and outs of debian. I hope it's moderately useful for those
completely new to GNU/Linux, though.
