Gutsy beta: What have you done for me lately?
I have to admit my enthusiasm for the Gutsy release is lukewarm. Looking over the list of features, very few of them seem useful to me. Naturally, that’s going to differ from person to person and machine to machine, but from my perspective, not much is appealing.
GNOME 2.20? Gnome is an aberration to me. Telling me you’re using the newest version is actually a turnoff.
And considering the hardware I use, I’ll probably only rarely see the destkop 3D effects enabled in their default form. If Gutsy is really smart enough to turn it on if your card can handle it, then it probably will leave it off for me.
Desktop searches, deskbar applets and tracker indexers are annoyances to me.
