	Well, I'm not trying to start a GNOME/KDE war. Both are inadequate. I 
happen to think that GNOME is on a better course than KDE, but that is 
up for debate. What I can say is that if all of the developers were 
working in a unified manner, we'd get a lot more done.

	Yeah... gconf_edit. No big deal. GNOME's configuration system is the 
same as KDE's is basic style, all GNOME did was provide a familiar 
interface to edit hidden stuff with. If you prefer, you can edit the 
XML files, just like in KDE to get to such features.

	You can disable it with just a few clicks in gedit_conf or you can get 
a little "pro config" tool. I cannot remember the info off hand, but it 
was really simple.

	Admit it, you just don't like GNOME. :-)
