Thanks, I'll move the conversation to that list then.

I usually call that the Hallway usability test (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usability_testing#Hallway_testing ). I'll ask
the people I have near.

Thanks!

Hi,

I considered those, but the following paragraph is a wordplay that refers
to the temperature (although maybe it was not intended as such). It says
"How cool is FeeBSD?" but then proceeds to talk about the temperature. It's
a half-joking chapter, so there's that :).

Thanks for all the replies!
