I can remember when Gnome was so unstable that even when Bug Buddy popped up 
it'd crash. It was pretty bad. Back then I didn't like KDE or Gnome, I ran 
WindowMaker.

Now I have to say Gnome is pretty rock solid, but I still don't like it better 
than KDE 3.5.10. I prefer a contemporary Gnome over KDE 4.1 too.

I need to explore the *box offerings a bit more. I've one system I use fluxbox 
on and if it just had a few more features I'd ditch all windowing environments 
for it. As it is it is so minimal as to be inconvenient for practical use 
though.

I hear good things about xfce too, but I've never given it a try. I'm looking 
at its website now and it might fill the bill for me. I think I may give it a 
test drive today in fact.

But I've another build project I haven't completed successfully yet. So maybe 
not.
