I finally got home around 2 hours ago, and when I turned on the computer, I had a staggering 445MB of updates. Though I guess, when you're running an alpha OS, you should expect this if the last time you checked was 3 days ago

I have to say, the updates have improved a lot of things for me, the whole boot process seems a lot better now, though the GDM background is a little bright, can't say I was expecting that, but it's a welcome change (although I DID like Jaunty's login theme, that was awesome). I've also noticed the new Human theme, it's definitely a step in the right direction, though I'm still using the Dust theme, just with the Humanity icon set - a few hydroxygen icons are still in place, not many though - all in all, I'm looking forward to see the way the Human theme evolves whether that be in Karmic, or Lucid (10.04).
