I cannot disgree with your statement either, Peter. It is simply
that I feel that "most users" could (and perhaps should) have higher
aspirations. If you want to get from A to B simply, safely and at
an affordable cost, take a train. You will have no control over
where it goes, over how long it stops at stations (and other
locations !), but 99 times out of 100 (maybe more) it will get you
where you want to go in an acceptable time. If, however, you want
to have total control over where you go, how fast you go, etc., then
buy or hire the most powerful sports car you can afford — once
tried, you may never look back. XeTeX is the Lamborghini, LaTeX is
the Puffing Billy.<br>
