Many people don't seem to realize the cost of options, they see only the benefits. One of my current goals is reducing the number of preferences in Adium without losing anything important. It's a tricky problem, but definitely doable. I've gotten rid of a few already that no one even noticed were missing. Here's what I'm afraid of:

nihilist:
Yay Eclipse!

Catfish_Man:
Eclipse is wonderful, don't get me wrong, but AUGH.

nihilist:
Bothers me that it just keeps getting bigger and bigger.  Eclipse 3.2 + MyEclipse 5.x is well over 350MB right now.  Add in JDK 5, and an app server, and you're hitting a full CD.  That is just fucked up.

And then you have something that works perfectly for 1/5 of the market, and doesn't meet the needs of the rest? Or doesn't work with other software or hardware?
