I have done on my own machines, however I spend 80% of my time working on clients machines.
Anyway my complaint is that it is a worthless piece of eye candy that is on by default.
That pretty much describes Windoze as a whole IMHO.
I guess you won't be approving of the general tendency for KDE and Gnome to ape the Windows GUI, then. I think it's good; the command line is great when you want to get complete control, but inexperienced users would rather eat rat pie than have to remember thousands of arcane and illogical commands. After all, the modern GUI was largely popularised by Apple under the slogan "The computer for the rest of us".
