Gnome A common complaint about GNOME is that it has a certain fetish for icons. Menu entries, buttons - everything has an icon attached to it which often wastes space needlessly by making buttons larger than they need to be, as well as menus wider than they need to be. The good news (for me, at least) is that the next GNOME release will have all these icons removed.

You have no balls in your content as usual. The entire menu structure of GNOME is a rip off of old Mac OS. In fact, it's a piss poor...

Well, I suppose that no desktop thread on OSNews would really be complete without Tyrione's mindless, droning, and incessant Apple cheerleading, nor the venomous and vile calumnies he so regularly hurls at... oh... pretty much everything that is "Not Apple".

I'm sorry but any claims of Apple and Microsoft cheerleading in OSNews forums is laughably ironic. It seems to be an offence (I once saw it described as "evil") in these parts to be a fan of anything that isn't approved by the nerd/oss/Linux troika.
