Right on! Fuck Linux and all users of Linux.
So says I, as I curse my burner for taking 20 minutes to burn valhalla RedHat-7.3 iso # 2.
I suck!
Why use a piece of shit 2.0, when you can use 3.0.1!!!. Fag0ts.
Actually, I've seen the opposite effect. From what I've seen, people coming from Windows tend to prefer Gnome over KDE precisely because it's not like the Windows desktop they've left behind. It seems to be a combination of factors. One seems to be a desire to 'make a clean break'; they left Windows for a reason, and do not wish to be reminded of it. Another is likely to be the danger of confusion in using a desktop that's almost - but not quite - like the one they already know. Using a very different desktop there is no longer that danger.
Both Gnome and KDE are good, and Linux is far stronger for having two lively projects (and a lot of small or special-purpose projects as well) in this area.

Trust the Computer. The Computer is your friend.
If you mean she looks like this: yikes!, then you are right!
Now, if this isn't a good argument for birth control, I don't know what is.
1. Why input japanese? English is the only global (and only useful) language even if you hate it.
2. I think something like the address-bar in konqueror is much useful than file-chooser.
3. The quickest method to do configuration is to modify the configuration file, isn't it? Are you newbie?
With Gnome-2 KDE is dead :)
Typing this from a KDE Laptop! Gnome sucks, its original purpose is dead, it goes to bed with red hat and it has big smelly feet!
you, Sir, are a cuntbubble.
