Not for display purposes... a Sun Ray does not run the desktop environment any more than your video card does. The server runs the environment, the Sun Ray only displays it. Again, from a display perspective, what has changed other than artwork?
(Sun, why, oh WHY are you shipping Gnome with Solaris?!)
Because CDE royally sucked, and GNOME was close enough to an MS-Windows "look and feel" to allow people to migrate to it with ease. Things will get better when they upgrade to the current GNOME release... the memory management has been drastically improved to the point that a coworker who upgraded from FC4 to FC5 was raving about the performance boost for days. I wouldn't be able to tell, as I don't use GNOME... I use WindowMaker (much lighter weight). -Kevin _______________________________________________ SunRay-Users mailing list [email protected] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/sunray-users
