Besides overhead. >=20 > Bloat. :-) Bloat can easily be defined as something one user does not need/require. Essential can conversely be defined as something a user needs/desires. In other works, your bloat can easily be another user's requirements. If you are happy wiping your ass with your bare hand, then fine. Many of use prefer to use toilet paper which perhaps you might define as "toiletry bloat." To answer the question, "What does KDE or GNOME buy you anyway?", the answer is nothing. They have never even brought me a cup of coffee. Now, if the user were to inquire as to what these two competing applications have to offer, I might suggest that he/she start by visiting the applications respective web sites for further details. --=20 Jerry =E2=9C=8C FreeBSD.user@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
