From a long-time /. reader, thank you for working so hard to keep the site thriving. Slashdot was one of the first tech news sites that I frequented, and more than a decade later I come back on a daily basis. I have many good memories of wasting time here instead of working. I wish you the best in everything!

When I do the whole burn-down-rebuild on a system, I let it evolve to my tastes. I like a change of scenery now and then, and a new OS install is the right time for me to get that. I try new apps, new desktops, new ideas all around. I might do KDE next time, I might stick with Gnome. I get new icon sets, experiment with new color schemes and wallpapers. It keeps me entertained and I always end up with a usable desktop in the end.
