Well, it seems lately that every developer in linux community is
trying to make something new that actually is crap compared to what
were used previously and everyone starts using it because it's "new".
Just look at gnome3, hal and thing like that.
It seems to me that with every upgrade and new feture every OS sucks
more and more -_-
