It has been over 2 years since the last major release of the Enlightenment window manager. It looks like 0.17 is a ways off but it's nice to see an update."

Just so that everybody knows, if the text ads that Slashdot sends to those of us who filter out the graphical ones are annoying you, you can probably eliminate them with privoxy by entering the following two lines into your user.action file.

XP is a good effort against Microsoft's old operating systems, but against to other vendor's - it's a sad joke. Fuck - Apple makes a better Windows-compatable file-serving OS than the people who make Windows. That should tell you somthing.

No super-computer runs Windows.
No root domain server runs Windows.
No satelite runs Windows.
No large-scale database runs Windows.
No cave system runs Windows.
No militaty flight simulator run Windows.
No bank runs it's federal transations on Windows.

Of all the important thing that computers do - hardly anthing important runs Windows. There's a reason for this.

Sure, MS has most the desktop video-game market, most of the simple spread-sheet market and simple document creation market to itself - but nothing really of importance.
