While I agree full heartedly with your statements, *if our machines are older, we will have to live with older desktops or lightweights* and users with older systems can't agree with us :( I have multiple machines at work running KDE 4.6.X(Fedora 13/14), Gnome 2.32.X(Fedora 14), XFCE(Slackware current/FreeBSD), LXDE(Fedora 14) and 3 or so running GNOME 3(Fedora 15 Alpha/Beta/updating) and so far my students are learning how to do things on GNOME 3 and I also get the benefit of learning from them :) Some students say that I am weird and have many different "windows" running :), and I tell them that Bill Gates has approved these versions of "windows" to combat pirated versions.
