enlightenment E16.  After messing with KDE, Gnome, Openbox, fluxbox,
flirting with XCFE and a few others, I came back to Enlightenment.

It's fast, doesn't have the feature I hate most - a taskbar.  Which, IMO, is
the most worthless piece of trash ever created - wastes window space and
provides nothing useful in return.

I like sliding from one desktop to the other - clicking on a desktop to move to
is rather silly.

And I hate having my Xroot hidden by Gnome/KDE with their overlays.  I detest
most icons - mainly those drive icons and mailbox icons.

Simply put if I wanted Windows, with a "Start" button and a task bar,
I'd run Windows.
