(not like KDE4 or win Vista)<br> - It used to be able to run for months, even years without a crash or need to<br> reboot.. (not like knotify4 and pulseaudio)<br> - It used to do all the things we wanted, with plethora of tools (not like<br> Gnome or Apple)<br> - It used to allow us to configure either through gui tools, or through<br> cmdline and text files (not like the modern "desktop" trends).<br> - It could connect to the network without the need of a GUI server/client<br> (not like networkmanager)<br> - It was free from closed-source applications (not like Android)<br> - It had allowed us to have a continuous desktop (+home) for many years,<br> including all the software upgrades, without need to format our disks every 6<br> months (not like Ubuntu or some KDE4 apps).<br> <font color="#888888"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#888888"><br></font></font></font></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I agree with this list and i'd like to add also:</div> <div>- Dont hide the root (with sudo commands etc)</div><div>:)</div><div> </div></div>-- <br><div>Dimitrios Glentadakis</div><br>
