There is a huge difference between essential programs (editor, terminal) and specific applications (photo management, music editor) And to return the example or Apple/MacOSX. iPhoto, Garage Band and iMovie are part of the iLife suite. It comes bundled with the machine like the OS. Not with the OS. If you pay the $149 upgrade fee for MacOS X, you don't get and upgrade of these. You have to pay another $79 to get it upgraded (actually there is no upgrade price). That clearly show that there are just different package bundled together with a machine. This is the distro choice. If we want to take care of all of this, why don't we just create Gnome Linux, and pick the kernel, the base system, the package management, etc. Hub _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
