Hah!

ONLY?

I for one would prefer to completely strip the system bare (i.e. uninstall RPM's, clean up things) then rebuild the Cobalts with our own RPMS that we've built, with our own interface.  That way, things dont have to be in the same place - we make our own guidelines up.  There's certainly nothing great about the way Sun's chosen to do it, imho.

I don't like the Cobalt interface - and the fact that it only appears to work in Internet Explorer really peevs me.
