Fair enough..........that's a good point Margot. I dislike MS too, but not 
because of the icons, or the *windows* concept.
Maybe I just didn't stay with XFCE long enough to really get used to it, and 
appreciate it's finer points? I tried Blackbox/Fluxbox for a bit also and found 
it lacking for me. 
I found Gnome to be less configurable, or less easily configurable at least.
KDE seems more complete to me, and I can find what I need......usually. ;-)

Could be just the eye-candy too. ;-)
Regards.
