Actually that's one thing I like about it, the search facility makes it really easy to find those obscure programs (as long as you can remember at least part of the name!) I tried Gnome 3 for a while, liked it, but was put off by a few annoyances. I switched to Unity and lived with it for a while too but it had similar annoyances so I've now gone back to lxde. The biggest annoyances for Gnome 3 and Unity was the gradual slowdowns. I think there must be memory leakage or something because after a few days my session would slow to a crawl and I'd have to log out and back in again. No problems like that with lxde. Gnome 3 has the best workspace management, Unity has the best top panel, but lxde is the fastest, leanest and most configurable. > But we all know that the interface will be vocal soon enough as per the > 'ford-touch' car-driver interface from microsoft... I don't want to ever talk to my computer. I don't understand why Siri is so popular. -- Mark http://www.lambic.co.uk
