But, but, but, .....   We NEED a windows style registry for Linux. My life
would be so incomplete without it!

OK. We really need a window manager that actually uses every compiled and
scripting language there is. Gnome needs to add a few more, that are all
required, of course, to be fully complete on the
"fracktheusermaintaintingthismess" scale. Ada, ruby and LISP and it's done.

May need some fortran for graphics

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you gain
at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his own tail.
It won't fatten the dog.
