With Gutsy, I Expect "Just Works"
Created on 15th September 2007 05:54 PM.
I've become aware of a shift in my expectations with Gutsy (the latest, currently pre-beta version of Ubuntu ). I'm no longer happy with figuring out how to make things work for me. I'm more concerned that things should just work for the general use case.
I wasn't aware of the shift at first, but it's true. Whereas before, for instance, I'd be happy to get 3D desktop effects working however I managed to do it, now if it doesn't happen very easily I tend to regard that as a bug (and file one on Launchpad ). I think this is a good thing because it means I'm expecting more from the system.
