MIT Gnome + Nautilus usability tests

[Sinzui Kobalt <sinzui cox rr com>]

MIT did a usability study of Gnome + Nautilus a few months
back.  It was a good discussion in the nautilus-list in
February-March, and changes were (and are being) made to 
Nautilus because of it.  The links below were originally
posted to the nautilus-list.  I think the study had some
valuable comments on Gnome itself that weren't relavent
to the Nautilus community.
