FYI,

All things going well I will have a beta release of Sun's new Java Desktop System (JDS)
(aka Mad Hatter) loaded on my machine for display and play at the October WellyLUG meeting.

The JDS comprises the following:

- A Gnome Desktop (mix of 2.2 and 2.4 at this stage)
- Star Office 7
- Java Runtime Environment 1.4.2
- Mozilla 1.4.x
- Evolution 1.4.x
- Real Player
- Adobe Acrobat Reader
- All running on top of Linux (including indemnification against SCO)
- A consistent Gnome-ish / Sun-ish look and feel

Cheers, Rob.
