i think you need to think about this differently: this isn't a gnome laptop. this is a sugar laptop, with the ability to do some gnome stuff if you need to. we didn't used to include gnome at all -- gnome was added because at some point the laptops got faster and had enough storage, and because one of our deployments wanted to be able to run some applications that weren't sugar-compatible. but when things got difficult (e.g., gnome3), we had to choose between getting a release out the door or not. paul > > > > > On Sat, May 10, 2014 at 12:20 PM, Paul Fox <p...@laptop.org> wrote: > > > scott wrote: > > > I'm new to the XO-4.
