I'm sorry I misread your message. To me it seemed to be saying "I want to use Linux instead of Windows, but I can't find any Linux desktop that can compete with Windows desktop." I personally don't see Windows desktop as better than Gnome 2 in any important way, so I didn't understand what you were looking for or complaining about. Maybe I don't think too much about the desktop because I spend so much time working from a terminal window -- not that it's better (but it might be), it's just that I started using UNIX systems via telnet connection and I had no graphics at all for years. I still do all file management from the command line and almost every program is launched from the command line. I don't use nautilus much. Mike
