Fedora?! What does he like Vista too?! lol Yuck. I do use the single
click and double click system, I think it is a lot easier. But I know
others who like it the other way even in Windows. As for multiple
desktops, you can do that with Compiz. I personally could care less
either way, but good to hear that you will be able to do that in gnome
soon. As for configuration, I don't know that there is anything you
cannot configure in gnome, at least I haven't figured out anything, it
is just how you go about configuring it. Personally, I think
configuring KDE is like trying to build a web, almost impossible. Now
as for K3b over Brasero, or Amarok over Rhythmbox? Not a chance! I fell
in love with both Brasero and Rhythmbox the second I used them. Talk
about applications that have it together, they are awesome! Evolution I
never used so I can't comment on unfortunately. Though I agree with you
on Thunderbird, that should definitely be default, it works well.
