Something traditional on my laptop - I use Blackbox 07.01.
It even takes less memory and appears a little more responsive then
Fluxbox.
Its a pity the developer didnt release any updates for years. Will see
how long it stands with more contemporary Unix systems.

+1 for fluxbox. Minimalistic, functional, very easy to

change.
I used fvwm2 and ctwm before, and I still like and
