Personally, I love the new spatial Nautilus and find that GNOME 2.6 is, basically, teh roxxor. It's fast, stable and stays out of my face. However, you can just go to Applications->Browse Filesystem and presto! It's just like it always used to be!

And his whining about "Choice" is bollocks, too. You can choose NOT to use it. If it's options yer after, go play with KDE. Run GNOME 1.4. Run FluxBox. Run WindowMaker. Run XFCE. Run Windows, for crying out loud.

Nick's diatribe is typical of those who think that Free Software has some kind of responsibility to be all things to all people. The GNOME developers made some design decisions, and someone doesn't like them. Film at 11.

I hope that if he's this bothered about it, he'll be filing usability bugs against Nautilus. You too, Greg.
