OK, I'll bite. Why?
I tried 1 or 2 of the 0.x releases, and yesterday installed the 1.0
release of nautilus. I'd like know what other's think about it.
Here's my impression:
1. Too slow. Although v1.0 is much faster than the earlier
pre-releases, it's just usable on my fastest system (K6-2 500 MHz, 256
MB RAM). I wouldn't think of trying it on my slower systems
2. Visually very slick. Unfortunately, the good looks sometimes get in
the way of functionality.
3. No key board short-cuts (for file cut, copy, paste, etc). It would
be a real chore to use this thing on a laptop.
My reaction was to install KDE 2.1 -- which I'm very pleased with.
