xgl and how it affected me

I tried Kororaa and found XGL to be really cool to use. Still a bit buggy but I can't wait to use it properly. I may install it at work. The cube effect is fun and on the fly translucent windows is a handy feature.

It was using a new version of Gnome that I hadn't used before. Certainly a lot nicer than the version that comes with Mandrake 10.1 or Ubuntu 5.04. This made me want to try it under Suse. I installed the Gnome packages and logged back in. Suddenly my pc is even faster! I quite like the set up and have been customising it a bit. Now it feels more like having a new computer. Looking at different things helps.

I wonder what will look best with my 24" lcd, KDE or Gnome...
