NEW • Development Release: GNOME 4.0 Beta |
 |
The GNOME project has announced the availability of the first beta release of GNOME 4.0, a new major version of the popular open-source desktop environment. Some of the new features include unified look and feel across a wide range of devices, simplified user interface, and much improved front-end with focus on accessibility. Robert Storey has an in-depth review (with screenshots) in First Look at GNOME 4 - the Future of Portability: "One glance at the following screenshot and I think that all will agree that the GNOME developers have really outdone themselves this time. It's obvious that they've given the whole 'desktop' metaphor a complete rethink. Gone are menus, icons, task bars, minimize and maximize buttons, the archaic Start button, wallpapers or even a command prompt. Rather, we are presented with a pleasant default blue screen (note that the color is non-configurable). It is the bold simplicity of this approach that makes GNOME 4 so powerful. Read the rest of this exclusive special report to find out more about the improvements in GNOME 4 and to see some early screenshots of the brand-new desktop.
