GNOME Shell tryout

http://marilyn.frields.org:8080

I’ve been using the GNOME Shell preview available in Fedora 12 this week and I’m really enjoying it.

http://www.dedoimedo.com

For some strange reason, I keep going back to Open Solaris. Maybe it's the beautiful Gnome desktop, well arranged and streamlined. Maybe it's the belief that Sun, one of the great technology leaders in the past 30 years, can deliver a usable operating system intended for the home market.
