I'm totally happy. Hardy is going to rock. Yeah, there are a few bugs still
but it's still a month out too. The new wallpaper is nice but the gtk colors
are like salmon or something. I can do without that. I thought they were
going to do an orange and black theme. I was looking forward to that.

I noticed that some updates a couple days ago removed deskbar. I don't
really use it much but not sure why they got rid of it. If it's what I
think, isn't that the search tool? Are they replacing it with anything? I
won't be sad to trackerd go away. That things eats cpu cycles like candy. I
sometimes have to kill it to do any work. Although once it indexes a new
install then it's not too bad.

There are lots of other nice new things too - some no doubt due to the new
version of gnome. I am looking forward to upgrading all my computers soon.
My wife is still using feisty.
