I installed as a promise to a friend that I would give it an honest try and it's been about a year since. The thing I like the most about it is on a fresh install it only installs the absolute necessities and the user can build onto that. I also found that totem works much better than kaffeine and as far as Amarok vs Rhythmbox I don't notice anything that stands out between the 2 and they both work equally well. All in all, what I like about Gnome is that the developers seem to stick to the the KISS principle, starting with a Pinto and giving you the option to build a customized Porsche. -- Blessings, David M. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
