Yes Christopher, you can... I can, and Devrim can....
As more and more people come on board people are going to want to
download a .exe (a metaphor),
double click and have it open an installer, they will then want to click
next, next, continue, finish.
You don't get that with apt-get install.
There is a reason that even Oracle has a graphical installer on Linux,
because most people installing
the software:
A. Don't know how to use it
B. Probably don't know how to use Linux
C. Don't want to.
