I only used a tablet once when my Mom brought over her iPad. Cute toy.

I also like icons. OK, Gnome3 is pretty, but it looks like a pain to work with.

One of my nerdy friends keeps pushing me to use dwm but I like having a taskbar with an icon for each of my open apps. Maybe I'm just old fashioned.

Yes, I did, thanks for the link anyway! I knew it got deprecated, just did'nt notice anything, as the article mentioned. But delving deeper may prove to be a safe bet for later on.

...until you get into it. My brother swears by it...but he has a fire cracker for a PC...eh, whatever floats his boat, I'd say...
