Ya, I was aiming for as light as I could but still be a drop in replacement for xp or vista machines, so the heavy weight programs brought some dependencies for sure. However, sometimes saving resources as well as LXDE does can then be used on running deluxe programs better. In other words whats the point of being light, if you can't use the extra available resources to run grade A programs when you might not be able to comfortably with a different heavier desktops.
Wasn't shooting for ultra light or all light programs, was focusing on a balance of light system with easy to use, capable, first class software that would meet most peoples needs and be an easy drop in solution.

I'll fix the typo now.

Sometimes, they may have some good ideas we can also implement. However, when I see : "Runs great on any 64bit PC with 1 GB ram." I fear it's not as lightweight as we want on Lubuntu.
