I scrapped KDE and GNOME to get the extra graphics
performance. I was already getting decent performance
from the beta version with the graphics tools.
I upgraded to 1.1 and have FVWM as my X mgr. Life is
great. I have NT 4 svr running in a window doing
notes and various office apps. I have a 770x with
128meg and 64 allocated to vmware.
Still looking for the sound support. Likely to buy at
the end of my trial period.
