		A little information about Cobind Desktop is provided on Cobind.com… “Cobind Desktop merges the reliability of Fedora Core Linux, the speed of a lightweight desktop environment, and the usability of a best-of-breed application suite into the basic, high-performance Linux platform designed with the average user in mind.
		Cobind Desktop has only one desktop environment, and though XFce is nice looking and easy to use, I still miss the ability to be able to choose which environment I want to run under.
		I believe Cobind Desktop is heading in the right direction by including the packages that are needed and not bloating the setup with tons of applications that are going to perform the same task.

	Interview with David Watson about YUMGUI & DiY Linux Tool
		Since we picked YUM for Cobind Desktop, it was one of the few places on the desktop where you still needed command line skills to install, update, remove, or search for packages.
		JK: It seems that your plan is to have YUMGUI and Cobind Desktop Linux as your feed and use DiY as your income generator along with other services.
		That is, the costs may be prohibitive for a small company such as Cobind, but are reasonable in the context of a large hardware company where strategic initiatives (software and hardware being complementary assets) justify the RandD expenditures.
