I keep hearing this, but honestly, that has _NEVER_ been the case. Very very few people actually _buy_ windows releases. People get the latest version of windows when they buy a new computer. From what I've heard, the price tag for Vista is gonna be insane, too.
Windows GUI, KDE, OSX, Gnome and a few others all are the same layout. Partially because its what we are used to via windows, and partially due to the fact its easier to handle.
Wha? OSX's guy is based on windows? I had been under the impression that Windows copied Mac, and Mac copied W or whatever the Xerox original implementation was. The reason nobody uses the crazy versions of enlightenment is that they're inneficient. I, too, used one of those crazy themes that looked with the borg had taken over my apps for awhile, but in the end, I dumped it, because it was a waste of screen real estate. My screen, technically, looks much more like NeXTstep, with the bar on the right side vertically. MacOS had the menu at the top, Windows put the menu at the bottom, we now have Gnome putting a menu at the top AND the bottom. But, honestly, there are only so many permutations that are still consistent with usability and utility. -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
