</I>I suppose I ought to try KDE but have little hope of liking it.  The 
couple of times I tried it in the past I felt totally lost, as I do in 
GNOME 3.  My main interest is development and for a new release I would 
want to make sure that I can run all my home grown ruby scripts OK 
because they effectively define a big chunk of what I do and I have no 
idea how to go about installing a persistent development environment in 
a live CD session.  I could not see immediately how to access my hard 
disk from the live CD either.
