I meant that as amazement that Linux has done so well as to get Sun to
switch. If it came across any other way, I certainly apologize. As for
getting away from the keyboard.., I can handle it. Thanks for your
concern.

I don't agree there. I think there's lot's of people out there who want
Gnome support and even more as Linux as a whole starts moving that way.
I see it as a shame that they won't stop to even consider Blackbox an
option.

I love Blackbox and want the option of using Gnome on it. So shoot me. I
don't want to use Window Maker, sawfish, or E. It isn't about meeting my
requirement anyway. From the start this thread has been about where
Linux is headed and I would like Blackbox along for the ride. Is making
BB Gnome compliant really going to turn it into a bloated E? Who's
kidding who?
Anyway. I don't like the tone this is taking. With your posts it's
degenerating into a love it or get lost sort of thing and I don't find
that constructive.
I thought there were some things going on. I thought Blackbox should be
part of it. Why don't we just drop it? Or is that not allowed either?
