This discussion has gone.. where? I started it to gather opinions for
new logo for trinity and trinity website since actuall resembles too
much that of kde. What I got is bunch of people disussing which
technologies we should use and which not on our new website (that
isn't even in early project state, just a simple idea in my mind).
And now we are shifting to TDE target...
Honestly, IMO this is wrong.
You sound like
an old fogie who is concerned that rock and
roll is from the devil.
Wrong guess, minus five! I was listening to rock and roll and driving my parents bonkers
long before you were born. :)
I don't think there is a direct connection
between the
two. Then again people using linux are more likely to know
about computers and want a faster connection.
Wanting a faster connection is not the same as having one. When broadband is unavailable,
which is true in many rural and less developed regions, then wanting won't change
that. :)
Linux based systems often are touted as a way to extend the life of older hardware.
Frankly, with what I have seen in free/libre software the past few years, that statement
long ago vanished from any truth like the dew on a hot sunny morning. As I said, devs
seldom design or test their software on older hardware. Short of minimalistic window
managers, the only remaining full desktop environments for older hardware are LXDE, Xfce,
and TDE. And Xfce is getting bloated too.
