No flames from here - I'm hoping to put together a system that is actually
*easier* to use for a newbie to computers.  If modelling parts of it after
XP or OSX will make it better then so be it.

How about "Web Browser" since "Internet" includes mail/news/ftp/ssh/etc too!

Indeed.  Us GLLUGers *like* choice, so a menuful of browsers by name is
welcomed, but a regular person just wants to point at "Web Browser" and
expect it to work.

The issue then is which choices to make for them!
