+Idea is to design all encompassing, flexible and powerful virtual
+environment where I can live in and very efficiently do all my
+computing tasks enjoyably and with playful ease.
+
+Examples of extendable environments where one can live in and do
+  almost everything:

+
+In both cases you can develop/install plugins for every purpose

+I would like to create general purpose environment with the following
+properties:

   - explore, understand
   - manipulate and compute on
 
-by extensively relying on:
