10 Ideas to Improve GNOME
,----[ Quote ]
| We love GNOME. Sometime around 2.6 it started becoming really, really damned
| good, and a lot faster and more responsive. All kinds of nice things like
| Network Manager, the Nautilus CD burner and the SFTP support popped up. It
| helps that most major Linux apps like like Firefox, Evolution, GAIM, and
| OpenOffice use the same toolkit and themes too. Obviously we’re not alone
| either: Ubuntu, RHEL and SuSE all use GNOME by default.

| bouncier, springier and responsive. KDE seems to let me pick and choose my
| experience just a little bit more.
