and the winner is:

xfce2 at www.xfce.org

I like gnome better than kde.
but on a 486 with 8 mega ram, gnome is slow as hell, and kde fares only
marginally better. I went back to fwvm, but I hate editing the config by hand. 
so, the answer is xfce. Unless you want to edit the basic config, anything is
done in 2 clicks, very much like gnome, also has a dockbar with drawers, a la
OS/2. easy, slick, nice, no frills, but fast enough on a limited machine.
default :-)

note: I'm talking about the 2.4.0 version (march 99), based on the forms
library. I couldn't compile the new 3.0.0pre1 GTK+ based version because I
don't have gtk 1.2.x installed (still 1.0.x). But I will test it asap, and see 
how it compares to the old version. total download: common is about 1.8 megs
and second archive is about 550k.
