Not alone. I'm also running Gnome. It just "feels" more comfortable to me. But then I'm a recent convert from FVWM.. ;) I use Gnome/Sawfish, Evolution for e-Mail, and Nautilus on the rare occation that I need a graphical file manager. I never quite got used to KDE. It "Feels" too much like windows to me. If you bog one thing down, everything seems to slow down (maybe that's just me..). Gnome took me a while to get used to though. Some things are either missing, or need improvement. Like putting launchers on the desk top. I've worked it out, but Gnome could benefit from smoothing this out. Also, some things In Nautilus could use some work. But after all, it's a release 1.x product. It's doing well for it's age. (anyone remember Windows 2.x? Now there was a usless product! ;) -- Ric Tibbetts Linux registration number: 55684 If you want to help advertise Linux - point your friends to http://counter.li.org/
