 - The interesting thing is that most tech savy people seem to prefer
something that has a lot of knobs and switches. Some users probably would
attribute lack of features/options to lack of quality. However the spirit of
the Gnome desktop is to have just enough options and sensible defaults. I
really can't recommend a client that respects it better than Transmission.
