...The EU wants to outright ban cookies altogether? So for example websites will have no way of tracking logins, meaning you will have to login on every single page? Becuase if so, to me thats just nothing short of retarded.....having said that... ...This is the EU, so i cant say im really surprised... ....Just disgusted as ever with them -L

If you go and ask an end user (and by end user i mean your average joe in the street, ie NOT a geek) what they want and ask them to draw up the specifications for their idea of the perfect linux OS most likely about 90% of them will go and design you windows (or mac) because that is all they hav ever seen. I for one dont see why after all these years of development the linux distro developers should suddenly start jumping to the tune of the end user. There is a degree of listening to what the end user would like to see and maybe implementing that, but frankly isnt it time that people started learning how to use a different operating system rather that expecting linux to change itself into a free version of windows so that they dont have to bother learning how to use it.

i know! i loved the KDE that came with centos 4.6 (KDE3.5 i think it was...) but KDE 4 is just horrid...
