but why enter the filesystem if you can directly go to home folder. anyways
if one does not know what to do in the filesystem keep it in aside. y flash
it on the face?

Re: [ubuntu-art] a representation of 'My computer'

2010-04-26 Thread Parag Agarwal
my only point is it should not be difficult for an average user to use
ubuntu. my style improves visiblity and avoids cluster. it will prevent
users from entering filesystem and deleting any important sys files. not to
mention the benefit of home folder being on top.

Re: [ubuntu-art] Suggestion

2010-04-06 Thread Parag Agarwal
Natan,
ubuntu should start mentioning the version the user is running. For
eg. Gutsy gibbon or lucid lynux...(plz ignore spelling mistakes)
it will make a great deal of difference as the users will eventually
end up remembering the versions and it will create top of the mind
recall for ubuntu...
just a thought... What do u say?
