Of Linus, KDE, and mouse buttons

[Evan Leibovitch]

At the last NewTLUG meeting someone mentioned the frustration of not
being able to map the middle mouse under GNOME. The first reply was "why
would you want to do that"?

The attitude behind such replies seem to be at the heart of Linus
Torvalds' traditional dislike of GNOME and preference for KDE,
re-articulated recently (and actually using the mouse issue as an example!):

Interesting reading.
