I've taken to using the Ximian desktop on my machine at work.
I own up to quite liking it - the software update channels are, IMHO,
very useful for a company environment.
Simply click on the System/Get Software menu item, and it goes off to
get a list of availabel updates. Works through a proxy fine too.
Evolution shows a lot of promise as an email/idary/contacts manager
etc., though I own up to not using it very much.
