    managers and custom setups. It was the thing to do. And then
    eventually I got tired of all the customizing.

    Looks like you replied to the wrong message, I didn't say the bit you quoted, but I'll bite. :)

    I agree with you there. A lot of attention has gone to the graphical
    side of the Linux desktop distributions. The multitude of "spins" on an arch, debian or Redhat base system have taken away a lot of attention
    to what realy matters: Good applications. There is a movement that
    says "Stop making distro's and start making apps" and I totally agree
    with them.

    Yeah, I don't really care about a desktop environment, beyonmd being able to use it and do common operations - copy/paste, etc. Apps are always good to have. I do tend to run a lot of command line stuff on Linux, and whip up the occasional script. :)

    I'm a cross platform geek that jumps from Windows to the Mac and Linux
    and looks for ways to let technology work for me. Been doing a podcast

    I like to run cross platform as well - horses for courses. No Mac here, unfortunately, but a healthy mix of Linux and Windows runs here. :)

    about that for a couple of years now. So i can say that each has its
    own charm and power. There is still a way to go for the hardware

    Yep, each platform has its strengths.
