And no, I’m not willing to shell a dime for basic features I get for free on the Linux Desktop.įor a desktop environment that is free, the Linux Desktop is any man’s wildest dream come true. How I managed to live without virtual desktops all those years still amuzes me. How about claustrophobia?

Just today, in the computer lab, I cringed at the fact that I couldn’t use keyboard shortcuts to minimize/maximize/unmaximize individual window applications on Windows XP. Today, I can hardly use Windows XP or Mac OS X without feeling somewhat restricted or without cursing. Take a look at the latest versions of GNOME or KDE and marvel.
