Insidently, this comment was made by the Editor-in-Cheif of OSNews
(Eugina). The wonderful thing about this comment is that I think most
of us would agree that DR16 (obviously what she refers to) the thing
that really keeps you running E isn't the eye candy but the easy of
interaction and simple yet powerful management in the real world!
Really, she's got it all completely backwards. When these people say
"it's not like GNOME/KDE" in terms of feel/functionality, I think they
really mean "It's not as restrictive as Win32". We offer everything you
could want and more. These sorts posts are just amazingly daft, and I
wish we could find a way to stomp this stuff out.
There is really no helping some people... ! :P
For the record, the reason I use e is cause its NOT like Win32... this attitude within
the Linux
community that something isn't user friendly unless its like windows really sucks
(actually, maybe
its not somuch WITHIN the linux community). And, ironically, eye-candy or not, e is by
far lighter
than GNOME/KDE!
So yeah, preaching to the converted as someone else said... keep up the good work
everyone! :-)

PS Looking forward to seeing some IRIX packages :-)
