This really needs a video of some sort to show the desktop in action. From just reading things and looking at screenshots, it looks like it provides a better platform for developers but is a quantum leap backwards for users. I assume applications have to be specifically developed for the platform, so that cuts out 99% of the applications users are going to want to use (Firefox, Gimp, OOo, etc.). Still, if it's really a nice platform, I hope it would become popular enough that popular applications could be easily coded to work with it.
