I was rendering spheres on planes.
It took 10 minutes to render a 640x480 image.
3D has gotten very far since then.
nautilus out, gnome 1.x control-center in

i don't like nautilis, in the three years thats its sitting here on my desktop i barely used it twice, but it crashes on me every day, not to mention the very strange (and backward?) shape it took up in gnome 2.6. gnome could lose that file selector to, i miss bash-style auto-completion. what i really miss from gnome 1.x is the control center that had all of the preferences applets under it. and there were alot more preferences to choose from. especially window manager preferences, metacity barely leaves you any tweaking, not even in g-conf.
one good thing i could say about gnome today is the configurable international keyboard they added.
I have to agree,
although i never tried 2.6, nautilus is not very stable, it crashed on me more than once.
i really miss the gnome 1.x control-panel, i felt that gave alot more then is offered today in the gui. using gconf manually is kind of absurd.
when i read through the article i was jut thinking about the developers, there probably is no good way of telling open-source developers they didn't do a good job.
Thats real academic merit.
They took something that has been going on for years, patented it, and in the proccess pulled the internet deeper into the depths of distrust and garbage traffic.
