Just curious if there's a stong leaning in the group towards Gnome or
KDE .. and are there hidden benefits of one over the other ?

PS - I mention this becasue today I downloaded the release of VMware
player .. they offer up a VM that is simply a web browser... run the
VMplayer and browse in perfect safety because any attacks on the VM
machine are erased at reboot. Im thinking of requiring this for
employees when they travel. Anyways.. the VM is built on Ubuntu.. my
first experience with that OS as well.. and it was set up to use Gnome..
FYI- You can download a demo of the full VMware demo and use it to build images for the player. Sneaky work-around... ;D
