Thanks.....I already use X, but this is for a laptop and I want to conserve as many resources as possible (its only a P100 with 48megs memory). While we are on the resources subject, I use KDE on my desktop, I am not concerned about resources there (Dual PP200, 256Meg Ram, 128meg Swap), and I love its functionality. I know people will hate me for saying I used KDE, but the fact that I can have Win95 ease of use and Unix power and reliability, is exactly what I want. But, KDE is not a major option for the laptop, where I am concerned about resources. I would like something with as much as possible the ease of use and functionality as KDE but not quite the resource hog....... Suggestions?
