Looking at my system, both apps are using ~ 9meg. Maybe it has been fixed. My first impressions - It fits the way I work better, I have lots of apps installed that I rarely use, and only a handful that I do use regularly. I've dragged them into the menu as Favourites and its quicker than hunting through menus for them. It does highlight how badly some (most?) apps .desktop file descriptions are screwed up with the tiles looking like Epiphany Web Brow... Web Browser Cowbell Music Orga... Music Organiser If the generic description wasn't included in the Name, there'd be a lot less ... going on. Clicking on the Hard drive info brings up gnome system monitor, which doesn't really have anything nice about the hard drive...maybe running the disk cleanup tool in gnome-utils. The icon of the hard drive could have a nice little pie chart thingy, like http://ramnet.se/~nisse/diverse/temp/disk-space.png The Network thingy says Connected: Lin... does it need the "Connected:" bit, if it was left out, I could see more of my network name Having Places/Bookmarks would make it very useful. I like the use of colour to differentiate areas, I think we should do more of this in GNOME. And if it's replacing menus, I think it should replace both menus. We dont want menus to be the new clocks. iain _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
