Both suffer from the same inability to deal with floppy drives in a
sane way, wrt mounting/umounting (Nautilus most, cause there isn't
even a default floppy icon on the desktop).

Sorry all you Unix Wizards, but I'm dealing with many users who comes
from the Wonderfull Windows World, and they are incurably used to use
the floppy drive in that Worlds Way, and this is the point where the
_greatest_ aversions against Linux are arising -- really, if this
problem goes away for them, I bet nearly all would be satisfied with a
desktop like GNOMEs (I don't appreciate KDE very much, but if it has a
working solution for the floppy drive, I think I will migrate my users
to this desktop).

Just my 2 euro cents,
joachim
