+1. There are alot of very useful desktop operating systems already, so i see no point in OI trying to compete with them. In business speak OI has a sustainable competitive advantage with ZFS, zones, dtrace, etc etc and those alone are why most people will be attracted to OI. Our OI servers sit in various computer rooms and we talk to them exclusively over ssh, if it didn't feature a GUI we wouldn't notice or care. I wonder how many other OI users feel similarly? -- Kind regards, Jules <golgy> whats so wrong with plumb? <hoolio> nothing, in itself. it's just for me, knowing what it means infers i cannot any longer pretend to not be a complete square when it comes to computers <Gryphon> I don't know that knowing anything about plumb turns you into a nerd, but this conversation already has <hoolio> are you calling me nerdy? <checkers> hoolio: you know what initramfs means, AND does.
