Ximian, Inc.(formerly known as Helix Code), released the latest version of their GNOME shell software earlier today. This build offers innovative software updating, new file management functionality, online support, and is packaged with the Mozilla Web browser.
The current version does not run properly on the unstable version of Debian GNU/Linux, however Ximian is working on a fix.
The fact that "A" is for "Apple" was apparently at the heart of browser vendor objections to Microsoft's alternative to listing IE first.
It literally does look like a 360-degree turnaround in Dell's fortunes, as the bells of bad tidings now toll solely for Dell.
Only a Manhattan Project can save Microsoft's phone strategy now.

Microsoft, RIM, and Nokia are each working on improved mobile operating systems. But could these efforts add up to too little, too late?
A look at Nokia's plans for the coming years does little to shine up the company's increasingly dull image.
It's always nice to have a backup, but it's even nicer to remember which one is the backup. That's the lesson Bing's admins learned yesterday evening.
If you think you can market your products and services online as though you're selling car batteries in the middle of halftime, think again. And again.
The Android SDK includes components which optimize app development for each version of the mobile operating system. Today, the 1.6 and 2.0 components got updates.

|Nautilus uses Mozilla to render its file system in the exact same way Windws uses IE. Hmmm...

|I've seen some of the screenshots... I love the way they've *finally* fixed the text on those desktop icons, and even made them look very... pretty. GMC was a pain for that - even with shaped text it still managed to look ugly.
Doesn't surprise me that it crashes a lot. GNOME always was a bit of a bleeding-edge desktop. If it launches faster than KDE (a painful 30 seconds of watching a Mac-style launch screen) then I'll be interested.
Just typical that it doesn't work on Woody. That's what I'm using. It's a nice distro, and the apt system is superb, but they really need to keep their package structure consistent so that they don't break things like this.

|The desktop does look awesome with the anti-aliased 16-bit icons and text. It boots very fast. From the time I got from login to the desktop took 5 seconds. Still a LONG way to go though... no way to uninstall programs, half-assed apps with no description as to what they do, MAJOR memory hog: Nautilus uses 68MB of ram just sitting there doing nothing.

|Lord. Been using it a couple hours now and it's got bugs everywhere. Sound Events don't work. The file management system uses Mozilla which is really slow. Nautilus crashed twice. Doh!
