But they need to more than that. My son almost cooked the engine on my
BMW by not heeding the warning about the engine overheating. What you
should know about a car is far from knowing how the engine works. What
you should know about a computer is far from knowing how to program or
how the OS works. The normal operating mode of Windows out of the box is
completely unsafe. Compared to that, learning a few things about some
other utilities to help Scribus help you is child's play.
