It was only 3 years ago when I switched from being a Windows developer (MSFT employee #9396) to Linux development. A colleague suggested the Gnome desktop. It was so bad that I switched to KDE and never looked back - until last weekend. I spent a few hours updating to Ximian's Gnome 2 desktop. Eureka! Now that is polished! I run Linux on my Dell laptop, and I have to say what a nice experience the new Gnome UI provides. Beautiful. There are still a few annoyances, but what a great improvement. Lingering annoyances (You may think this is pretty picky, but hey, ...) 1. When adding a "Launcher" the icon selection window is too small, and doesn't remember your last resize. 2. Still cannot get Evolution to fully integrate into the MS Exchange server calendar/appointment scheduler.
