way to go man,
WindowMaker is elegant, clean, and really comfortable to use.
And it's fast even on modest hardware
Once I got used to it I'm not willing to go back to crappy "Desktop" metaphors.
Of course I do all file management in CLI
Just yesterday I played SOF in multiplayer, with "realistic damage" turned on, it would crash the server but nothing more on Linux but it would bring NT down.
I totally agree. In terms of innovation, this sucks. It looks way too win98-ish with the crappy explorer shell and all, stuff that could bring even a 1gHz athlon to tears. God I hate those stupid browser metaphor file managers. In terms of aesthetics, too, this is a total debacle. Can you say "UGLY" widget set? Well, to me it did look ugly, even uglier than QT, and man, that's ugly enough. How about the terrible icons? Blah, don't even wanna discuss that. Ease of use? Well I never tested that but it seems to me that heaps of is-that-a-button-or-what stuff with cryptic pictograms on them will hardly add anything to the ease of use, especially by a new user. Conclusion: I expected much more from the easel guys. This stuff is no different from Windows, which in turn is a look-alike of the MacOS finder, which was conceived in the early 80s. Blah I'm sick of it. Won't those desktop guys ever stop immitating?
Right on, brother. Holding it in is of no use. Better lash out immediately than let your rage grow and become more harmful. When you kick some ass, people understand and are generally nicer afterwards. I know that sounds cynical, but hell I know that from experience. If you can't beat up some fucker alone, get your bigger brother or friends to beat him up. It works like a charm, believe me.
Virii are not alive, genius, they consist of a lipoid or glycoprotein container and DNA fragments which are meant to alter the host cell's own genome so it produces only more virii. They don't have the necessary apparatus to feed, reproduce or do anything by themselves

So like, you don't own the contents anyway, why should you pay for the cd, instead of just getting the contents. =) I hate stuff that sucks
