Debian Jesse is going to have Gnome3 as the default desktop.

The desktop re-qualification page, used to help choose which desktop will be default, has in the Jesse version a weight for systemd integration, and of course only Gnome3 does it (at least for now). This will surely make the systemd/gnome3 fanbase happy, but possibly will make others unhappy, as it [may] be seen as another step towards mono-culture, until we soon end up with all distros being redhat clones.

    I also forgot where I was going with that last comment, here it is: I accidentally connected an ISA modem with a machine powered up, flash/bang and the modem was dead, fortunately the MB survived as it was a customers pc. I think those old ISA sockets with the amount of tilt you could get would short the pins, pity, hotswappable components would have been awesome.
