Hello together,
thank you very much for the very interesting answers ... ;-)
Actually I am just using my Ubunutu Linux in a Virtual Box. I would like to
do more with Linux, but I do not have the time.
In my live at work, I just have Windows available (with Mentor Boardstation
in X-Windows).

For general desktop use, I tend to gravitate to the MacBook, but I'm not
limited to it. If I need a lot of windows in view, the Linux box with two

Sure. Works fine. Of late, it's been my main platform for gEDA, since I've been
on the road a lot, and the MacBook has a bigger screen than the Linux netbook.

hello Markus,
I've also switched to gnome3, since it's shipped with Fedora. I hated
it and now I like it. It's a complete new look and feel. Give it a
try, learn the shortcuts. I do the most of my tasks with the keyboard
and that's much better in gnome3 than in previous versions. I haven't

Drifting off topic ... but going with the flow somewhat:
I've been running Linux Mint Debian Edition 64bit since about February
this year.
Very impressed.
I like the rolling distro idea. So far nothing serious has broken and
have not had to be too techy with it. There are some good ideas coming

Four monitors on one PC, xdm + xterm + fvwm2 with four virtual
desktops, custom menu bar app, hotkeys all map to a script which
detects which virtual desktop is showing and redirects the commands to
one of two machines (the other uses remote X plus ssh). Makes it all
