Very good point indeed.

For example, Catal� would be a quite good one (of course there are many
others, pease don't take any offence). 6 million people live in Catalonia,
which has a high percentage of Internet users, relative to the whole
Spain, and a sizeable amount of them would loooooooove to use it. AFAIK, only crApple have released a
Catan version of their OS.

Best regards
