Don't get me wrong, I'll certainly be using open source software. I just want the underlying OS to be something thats got bling and yet is stable. Probably also so that I can use my x86 laptop to get /more/ Linux development done (esp. when it's not the main email box and /home).

Quickbase to MySQL (db4free.net in particular)
Microsoft office to Open Office
Inadvertently I have "Switched" from proprietary software to Open Source Software!

I do agree that Evo sucks up lots of RAM, esp if you have loads of emails. I esp feel this when I was on 512MB of RAM only. NOw that it's bumped up to 1.5GB, it's OK. (though that's not what the RAM was bought for initially)

Anyhoo... there's gnome-notification-daemon right? I think it's called galago and there are already some things which uses it, namely gaim.
