I had been using Gnome for a long time just for the clean look and feel of it, until I got tired of Nautilus and the huge memory footprints and silly COBRA-something going on behind my back. I switched to XFCE a few weeks ago and am loving it so far. It's based on GTK, it has the clean look and feel, yet it's also tons faster and smaller. They put the task bar at the top by default, and the panel at the bottom. I did try to adjust to those defaults, as a way of trying something new, but found it too weird. So I moved the task bar to the bottom and the panel vertically to the right, which turns out to be incredibly convenient to me. All software sucks, so XFCE can't be an exception, but it seems nice so far. -- avva "There's nothing simply good, nor ill alone" -- John Donne ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
