BlueCurve Observations

• The system bell is a soft Macintosh-like feep. I don't like it. I like the computer to say "FUCK YOU! YOU SCREWED UP!" rather than "excuse me, I don't think that's quite correct.".
• I don't see what the big KDE/GNOME fuss is; the visual changes aren't all that major.
• The toolbar is STILL too frickin' big. And too cluttered by default. I think if they're going to emulate XP or MacOS 10, they should take some more notice of clutter removal.
• Konsole blows goats. Big goats. Big, filthy goats. Middle-click is PASTE, not POP UP MENU. Bring me XTerms, stat.
• Xft2 is nice.
• Why does it take so bloody LONG to get from the login box to the desktop? This is a 450MHz laptop with 320MB of RAM and a 16MB/sec hard drive, dammit.

All things considered, I'm installing fvwm2 on this shortly and going back to that.
