There are two sides of a killer application. One side is:
- the useful one: vim, xmms, muttng, suspend-to-...
- the apps which make me sad: firefox, VMWare, synaptics.
But the real killer are my kids. I do not know how they able to crash
the computer but they do it. My son destroy my x server and I have to
remove and reinstall the complete stuff.
