“This is an unfair review. In one corner, you have a product
that is the culmination of several proprietary Unix vendors’
desktops. It has a quality tool kit that has had years of
refinement for its code-base.”
“In the other corner, we have the new kid on the block,
GNOME.”
“Most people would expect GNOME to be the underdog. This is
clearly not the case. GNOME matches or exceeds the features found
in a typical CDE desktop, and that’s what’s so surprising. GNOME is
also evolving at an accelerated pace.”
