I'm glad someone said "wasted 50 minutes of my life", I'm not watching 
something that long which will (as has already been said) invariably 
change.  When it gets here there will be an oppressive media push anyway 
and I'll see more of it than I want.

I wish i could say that "progress" equaled "improvement".  Sadly, I'm 
not so sure.  Closer to home, I hear KDE4 is a radical departure from 
previous.  What little I've seen doesn't impress me.
