Linux gets Usability Support

Linux focusing on usability ...

"The Better Desktop initiative from Novell is a new component of the openSUSE project that provides open source developers with usability testing data and resources they can use to improve the quality of the Linux desktop.

Novell has released primary desktop research, including video footage and analysis of usability tests (see link below). Instructions for constructing and operating a low-cost usability lab will also be provided.

This initiative means that open source developers will be able to see for themselves the types of desktop software designs that are succeeding with end users. As a result, open source developers will have the resources to build applications that better meet the needs and expectations of users, which may see a rise in the adoption of Linux on the desktop."   continued ...   (Via Usability News)
