[opensource-dev] Retaining Newbies (Was: The Plan for Snowglobe)

[Patnad Babii]

If LL plan to get more people in, they better lower those requirement, make 
a low-definition viewer if it can't be done in the current one. Give them 
minimal tools so they can still connect and enjoy second life. It's true 
that SL doesn't work everywhere, but the web does. This is in most part why 
the web is STILL so popular.

If the 3D web want to get more people interested it have to lower that entry 
bar, people really take a while to upgrade their hardware.

Lots of people having still 5-10 years old computer and we need to get these 
people in too.

Just my taught but im no specialist.

requirements even higher"...
