Lets see again what features had made us like linux in the first place:<br>
  - It used to be light and fast. (not like KDE4 or win Vista)<br>
  - It used to be able to run for months, even years without a crash or need to<br>
reboot.. (not like knotify4 and pulseaudio)<br>
  - It used to do all the things we wanted, with plethora of tools (not like<br>
Gnome or Apple)<br>
  - It used to allow us to configure either through gui tools, or through<br>
cmdline and text files (not like the modern &quot;desktop&quot; trends).<br>
  - It could connect to the network without the need of a GUI server/client<br>
(not like networkmanager)<br>
  - It was free from closed-source applications (not like Android)<br>
  - It had allowed us to have a continuous desktop (+home) for many years,<br>
including all the software upgrades, without need to format our disks every 6<br>
months (not like Ubuntu or some KDE4 apps).<br>
