Let me raise a somewhat more thorny issue here. This topic came up for us 
this morning because a newbie was asking for advice.

If, as I think we've just established, grub is less accessible than lilo, 
might I suggest that it is inappropriate to recommend the less accessible 
option to a newbie. And, if it is appropriate to recommend it, isn't it an 
ethical responsibility to advise about the accessibility concerns and the 
existence of a more accessible option? I believe this is the 
responsibility of those of us with a bit more knowledge and experience.
