I notice that the asclock thing loses its themes here when I restarted it
from the rpms from gnome.linuxpower.org.  The first time it had themes
present but after that no themes.  I also noticed that the themes are
present on my laptop still with rpms from gurulabs.  I also noticed that in
the user level system folder that I only have gnorpm and shutdown or reboot
on my desktop but my laptop has a whole bunch of stuff.  Screem (html
editor) also has a wierd habit of segfaulting and dying if I click with the
right mouse button anywhere in the screen on a html document I am editing.
The meter which does cpu/mem monitoring likes to die when vmware starts up
on my laptop.  I gather vmware must be too much for it :)  I dont know if
these are actually "bugs" and I have reported several things to the
gnome-bug script and I will report the memory meter thing there too.

At a good level, I upgraded the imlib stuff and Eterm did not break... Yay!! 
I also really, really like the new look with icons and how sawmill shows up
in the control center's window manager stuff.  Its slick!!  At a better
level, gnome just looks better and it seems to have the little touches of
things that I really like now.  It has a polished look.  I have searched a
few areas for bugs in playing and using on my Dell Inspiron 7000 for work
(which BTW, has a great display to showcase gnome!!).  Keep up the great
work on the fish too :)
