I've never had any trouble finding apps in XP's start menu. I use 'dirs' and group the apps by genre. I have design apps, sound apps, internet, security, utils, and so on. No need to scroll or have two columns. I don't use quick launch and I don't have a single app shortcut on my desktop (I have quite a few txts in there though, as post its...).

My first impressions after watching both movies and reading both books, IIRC, since it was many years ago (I'm 34), were:

2001: great book, masterpiece of a movie.
2010: maybe even a better book than 2001, but a regular movie.

I still enjoyed the whole thing, of course.

I was able to see a restored version of 2001 in a proper movie screen in the end of the 90's. That's an experience I won't forget.

I do find it weird that people who love the book consider the movie boring though... I mean, it goes by faster than the book, of course, and it's basically the same thing, just masterfully illustrated. It's like watching a slide show. I actually have a book about the movie, with thousands of pictures from the actual frames. Interesting stuff.

Well, it would be if it was possible to watch it without falling asleep within less than an hour into the film.

You must be american. It's no wonder a genius of that magnitude decided to get the hell out. I hope you choke on popcorn the next time you think you're watching a movie.

There's so much on that masterpiece you'd take your lifetime just to grasp the obvious 10%. If you could focus for more than half an hour, that is.

But hey, don't take my word for it.
