Are you serious? I mean… if you want to disagree with me I'm OK with that.

</div>Indeed. In fact, what would be better would be if we just produced a<br>
live CD or something, including an entire operating system which people<br>
could just pop in and boot off. Or maybe even just dedicated hardware -<br>
just plug it into your network, power it on, and it's all there. Of<br>
course, there'd be a fractional increase in maintenance burden -<br>
providing security fixes and updates for an entire OS or even computer<br>
might turn out to be more involved than just for Rabbit itself, but the<br>
ease of use for end users would be vastly improved.<br>
<br>
Actually, taking this to its logical conclusion, one might consider even<br>
the existence of such hardware to be annoying - couldn't someone else<br>
take care of even that? Starting to sound an awful lot like the sort of<br>
thing that cloud foundary provides.<br>
<br>
Students will waste vastly more time on facebook and twitter each day<br>
than it takes to compile erlang. If learning how tool chains and<br>
compilation of software works is deemed unimportant, then I would<br>
suggest you migrate to something much closer to cloud foundary where the<br>
administrative burden is almost entirely removed.<br>
