Hey, go high tech! Have an color LCD or current tech that displays the
summary filer view in multi-color- cpu %, OPS, Network Bars -
configurable as to color, and graphing style.

Time for a diversion. :-)
It's been two weeks since the F880 was announced. And nobody here has
any
comments whatsoever? How can that be? Yeah, SMP, new benchmarks, tech
specs, blah blah blah - that's not even relevant (yet). What's *really*
at issue here is the new Jetsons-inspired faceplate. I can't believe
that
nobody has anything to say about that! It's the new fall fashion lineup
in geek gear, and nary a peep!
I vote for "skinnable" filers. I think it'd be _cool_ to have a
selection
of colors and styles. I loved the gleam of the F630 - I think most
folks
would agree that was one of the coolest designs ever. The elegant,
understated blue of the F700's is nice. Fits in elegantly with the
purple
(er, "periwinkle") of the Sun gear. I think next we ought to have a
gleaming black, or maybe a rich charcoal... or better yet, just have a
custom grille color selection and paint 'em to order. :-)
Right. Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
Cheers,
