| gwhere ""intuitive interface" is sheer nonsense. You'd have to figure out via google how to operate the thing. Those who did didn't appear impressed either." |

| papaya "Working version again in Mint 11. Hope it's here to stay, fonts look better than in mmucl." |

| mmucl "Good! Does work with Linux Mint 11. Very oldfashioned interface, fonts not perfect to the eye, nevertheless easy to use, configurable enough, with colours and history scrollback on up/down arrows." |

| filezilla "Too bloated, too complicated. Though I do not like gftp much, it is a little easier to handle imho" |

| xchat ""If only irc was that easy to operate when it was all the rage." you name it. ah, the memories. well it is not TOO easy nowadays. I like it, works from the start thanks to default autoconnect to some linuxmint-supportchannel :)" |

| timer-applet "Small, nice, fun to have" |

| file-browser-applet "It's banal popup filebrowsing utility that should be available by default. Glad I found this at last, makes launching much easier. I depend on this parallel to gnome-do. Just the home item in the menue per default, so it will take up less space than the example picture suggests." |

| vlc "Worth six stars ;)" |

| ttf-mscorefonts-installer "Good to have" |
4 |
| cairo-dock "Glitzy plaything, far from elegant. Configurable in many aspects, but not where I need it. Takes too much time to figure out a decent layout, templates are ugly, too. Cannot uninstall the first/main dock and create another one ins its place when I want to, must rather choose new theme and start from scratch.. Have to stick with Docky. Even awn is more tolerable than cairo." |

| pencil "Nice" |

| gtodo "Glad to have it, among the first things I install" |

| gwibber "Hate it, sorry. I stick with Pidgin and Qwit." |

| vsftpd "NOT "simple" for an average Mint user! First thing after installation is messing around with a cryptic error message and googling around for help forums and wondering about more messages from the terminal window. I don't mind to eventually become an expert with the terminal thing, but when I'm looking for something simple I expect more of an intuitive interface." |

| gnome-commander "I do not care for this one, I like Nautilus a better. One thing I like better than in Nautilus: split view as a default." |

| bleachbit "Äußerst nützlich. Very useful. Didn't feel it was slow." |

| guake "Very handy! Unobtrusive. Appearance is highly configurable to fit an elegantl desktop, too." |

| gprename "Not a beauty but does the job; meets my needs a bit better than pyrenamer." |

| pyrenamer "Nice Interface; preview could be intelligenter; getting a bit slow in bigger directories" |

| docky "very good. stable, good looking" |

| gnome-do "Must have" |
