  • possibility to install other Window Managers (KDE/Gnome, etc) and have them available in the login manager directly
  • possibility to install applications and have them show directly on the menus (.desktop featured)
  • boot from external devices (cdrom, usb, firewire, etc) we need testers of this feature!
  • e17 updated !
    • names of the dock's icons' appear on mouse-over
