I use 4.10 with Blackbox on my laptop. I installed the libraries for
both Gnome and KDE so I can use some of their apps. I like Evolution
as an Outlook clone but am using my gmail more and more. I switched to
Gnumeric and Abiword from their Open Office counterparts because they
seem to start up faster and have all the features I need. Aterm starts
up alot faster than gnome term but doesn't have the cut-n-paste
feature wich I never realy need anyway.

These are just some of my personal preferences. They are working well for me.
