First.. has this world becoming so boring and PC that an individual's opinion is a target??
This was the reviewer's personal opinion.. I think the default style is ugly, but performance, not looks is what counts.
I liked the Matrix background.. needed work, but the idea was cool.
If it was not for a weid glitch that affected KDE by causing weird artifacts in the menu bars (something that I also briefly experienced with RH 7.3 which led me to believe its my laptop) I would still be running CL 2.5 instead of Lorma Linux. But CL is on my recommend highly list.
I really cant find any fault with Eug's review.. it may have been brief but so what??
As for the wrath of CL's honcho.. well good for him.. abit overdone as I feel he took it a bit personally, but this is not some major corporation where you have to affect some stuffy air of superiority.. call it like you see it bro.
ASs for the two posters who have now sworn off CL.. take your toys with you... I am not a fan of Bill Gates or Microsoft as a corporation, but I still will use WinXP and Longhorn because they have their uses.. plain and simple..

Cant wait till the next SOHO release.. hint hint hint
