Putting Linux on people's desktops means to make a 
serious disservice to the Linux movement. There is an
old saying that if there was a program that any idiot can 
use, only idiots would use it. Windoze comes as close
as possible to that definition and I would like it to stay
that way. I hate KDE, GNOME 2.6, 3D Nautilus and alike.
Believe it or not, I replaced GDM by XDM and I use the 
good, old mwm instead of "desktop environment". Writing
a menu is not a problem after only one look to system.mwmrc.
I don't have icons on the background, I don't have 
[EXPLETIVE DELETED BY MORAL MAJORITY] task panel and 
similar stuff.  I like my Linux rare, without the freedom
fries.
