What would be another one to check out? Enlightenment is good, but resource hungry, and i can't make those icons on the right go away. Windowmaker: well, i just don't get the whole dock concept. Seems too hard to customize into anything integrated. I thought KDE had the most promise, IMHO. But then again, i am looking for productivity, not pure efficiency, so maybe that's the best bet. Any suggestions? I just like the whole integrated desktop concept, rather than trying to stitch together a bunch of incompatible cryptic utilities. I mean, hey, it ma be bloated, but at least it's still Unix. My HD is big enough anyway, since i'm trashing windows ;-) OK, this is a questions list, right? Question: What would be easy to use in place of KDE? Easy to learn but powerful when i need it? Gnome? jcm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
