The simplicity of Mac OS X

Most Portuguese Universities have now adopted the common wireless infrastructure, Eduroam, that allows all students and professors to have the same access credentials in (almost) all Universities in Portugal (and in most Universities in other European countries). Each University provides a tutorial to help the users configure their wireless devices in order to use the referred network.

This user decided to do a little comparison between the different OS' tutorials. Guess what the results were. Well, check it out for yourself. This image shows the length of the tutorial for each operating system:

I guess it sends a clear message on the simplicity/complexity of certain operating systems :-)

Repara que em Mac e Ubuntu é a mesma coisa, embora pareça ser maior no Ubuntu. Uma prova que as distros de Linux bem podiam se esforçar um pouco mais para simplificar os processos por GUI, claro que continuando a ser possível fazer o mesmo via linha de comandos (Debian) por ser sempre mais eficaz.
Quanto ao campeão no comprimento, nem vale a pena comentar...
