Re: KDE vs. Gnome



I talking about the high-level leading production desktops...

I love blackbox and icewm, but I think they are for advanced users and
developers, or even a specific management display.

KDE and Gnome, are developed and modified much faster than others.

I just want to focus on desktops for non-advanced users, or better, dummies
on another OS than W$

When you mentioned blackbox, I remembered a blackbox win32 ver. unstable...
but well done.

Try it..

best regards

bye
