Hmm, for me, I always download and install GParted right after any
installation. Yes, I do understand why it had been removed before and why
you are suggestion to remove "Disk Utility" but as someone said on his
signature on Ubutnu Forum: "Linux assumes you know what you are doing" - If
I remember correctly, that was the saying :D
And I personally thing: Those who are using Linux, must be educated and
aware of such things/stuff/applications.
HOWEVER, because we are getting ready for the big event - Start Ubuntu [1],
So:
I do think if we keep it as a default app that it would be better to
