Sorry, but OL 3.x Workstation (notice the change from "desktop" to
"workstation") was targeted to developers. Someone has to develop the
apps you run on the server (be it COL 3.x server or OpenUNIX 8 using
LKP). It was never meant to be a desktop and, AFAIK, it was part of the
plan from the start.

Anyway, it doesn't matter anymore, does it?? :)
