I think it is a worthy debate to have..as the project becomes more technically
accomplished it is a sound argument to switch the emphasis of resources from
technical development to application,user,and graphics development Whether we
have reach that point is unclear However graphics development plays a vital
role for the user, a lesson learnt early on by Apple.However the brand and
graphics supporting the chosen brand image may be influenced by Oracles
impending takeover of Sun.I am clearly in favour of continual review of this
subject as user adoption tends to increase as graphics investment increases.I
am continually impressed at the innovation of the general graphics community
and would be totally supportive of an opensolaris graphics community been
formed by seeding graphics.For those interested you might look at log in
screens,wallpapers and interfaces at deviantart.com for some impressive
innovations of the desktop.
