I've put a request in to have the availability of a functioning trash can on the desktop. As to if it will happen? Pass.
Having just had screams (and lots of them) from changing a computer system from XP to Win 8, you are quite correct... XP users have used it for over a decade. If we can make it less painful for them to adopt lubuntu then I do think it is a worthwhile excersise. No computers will be harmed during the trials :) The ability to take a 'skin' of another OS has been around for a long time. Regards, Phill.
