For nostalgia, I use AfterStep (I really liked my NeXTcube from 10 years
ago ;). To confuse the fam damily, I use fvwm95 (based on fvwm2).  The
2.2.2-Stable (as of two weeks ago) ports install of fvwm95 was a little
screwy (I had to make some softlinks to various directories in order for
some of the icons/graphics to show up).

(You should see the look on my son's face as he struggles to find Subspace
while I'm running fvwm95 ;-)
