hi, in the arousal of using Enlightenment and my IBar questions, I forgot to introduce myself here on this list...
my name is Meine and I live in the south of the Netherlands. I daily use computers since about 1988, internet since 1990 or so. developed an early dislike of ms-dos and used Mac computers up til system 8.5. through my work I force-learned to work with windows (downside) but got a PC partly paid by my boss (upside ;-) in 2009 I bought an Acer Aspire One with Linpus (with the big tiles) and started to discover and use Linux more and more. after the usual tries of brown and green distro's I stayed with Fedora since version 10. by destructing the main computer in the house and with the help of the fedoraforum.org and the net I was able to develop practical skills with Linux and CLI. since I have hardly any coding experience -- apart from HyperCard back in 1990 -- and my main interest is in the human-machine interface, IMHO desktop environments are key element for computer users. deb/rpm is of less importance for most end user's points of view. when I wrote an article for OpenSource.com [http://opensource.com/business/14/2/choosing-desktop-environment-linux] I discovered and tried Enlightenment. up till then I used LXDE because I have no need for the frills. after some weeks using E next to LXDE I made the switch to Enlightenment and I really like it! the speed of E is superb, even compared to LXDE, it looks great and is very tweakable. you can visit my blog at http://cabra219.wordpress.com thanks for reading! -- //meine ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Is your legacy SCM system holding you back?
