I just finished an evaluation of Beryl, Emerald and XGL on my Suse 10.2 system and I have to say that Vista has nothing special in comparison. What a desktop enhancement!
Now, having said that, I have to report that I removed it all from the computer because of the extra overhead that it requires and because I personally do not need or want many of the bells and whistles that are provided. So, to summarize, it is really nice eye candy but it made my system slow down because I don't have gobs of memory.

That was my assessment too. This stuff has no place on a working machine. Maybe just to show off, but realistically it adds nothing to usability that can not be achieved easier with multiple desktops. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
