But I do. Where I come from, it's called bloat. Even with reduced memory footprint, Solaris will still need half a gigabyte (!!!) to install. So OK, I can understand people wanted to capitalize on using "standard" technology like GNOME; but hey, all of the libs needed could've been linked in statically -- and somehow I seriously doubt a statically linked binary would have needed half a gigabyte of RAM to run. If it did, then the "standard" GNOME stuff is no better than Microsoft's bloated junk. There, I wrote it. That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it!
