+When you load up GNOME, you will notice that its interface is sober but well
+designed: the GNOME menu limits itself to the tools you'll most likely use while
+hiding the rest of the tools that probably confuses most of the users anyway.
+The window decoration is simple, but gives a nice finished look. Configuration
+options are limited at first sight and very easy to comprehend. Real
+configuration gurus know that GNOME has a very extended configuration model, but
+it is hidden from the interface because most users wouldn't need it anyway.
