Using a mac at the new job, it's very pretty and very annoying at the same time :) On Fri, Jun 10, 2011 at 10:38 AM, Ronnie Gilkey <[email protected]> wrote: > I haven't gotten to play with LXDE yet, is anyone currently using it? > Thoughts? > > Ronnie > > > On Fri, Jun 10, 2011 at 10:36 AM, Joshua Frugé <[email protected]>wrote: > >> Fedora 15 is pretty good if you want to stay "redhat ish".
