Star Don't Blame Windows and KDE for Your Own Aversion to Change
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Tue 27th Jan 2009 13:46 UTC
Editorial With Windows 7 having made its grand debut, and with KDE4's vision making leaps and bounds forward with every release, we have two major software projects that have decided to implement some fairly drastic interface changes. Such changes are bound to receive some harsh criticisms - but the funny thing is, these criticisms usually come from people you least expect it from.

That`s hardly a logical thing to do. Enter is meant to LAUNCH things. I gto eventually used to this on my Mac, but at first, I was rather angry.

And ... that is documented where in the interface? Which is the point that is being made.

Which illustrates the point. How do I know that I should hit Enter?
