I see you know what I mean. ;)
Actually, the shop where I am more or less working at is at the very
edge of selling machines preinstalled by default with GNU/Linux
(since my boss thinks that the Windows XP licenses simply are too
expensive for both customers and retailers), and while xfce4 is not
officially available, I chose a mix of xfce3 (the panel, without
xfwm3), oroborus as window manager, the "deskmenu" for handling my
desktop menus and rox as the default file manager / desktop icon
painter. Looks amazing, performs great on all sorts of machines I by
now put my hands on, and is configurable in an amazing way, so we
can build a menu structure that is completely our own without being
tied to an incredible amount of overhead provided by packages like
KDE or GNOME. This sort of flexibility in setup is what, after all
the years, makes me like XFCE even more. :)

Cheers,
Kris
