A lot of it depends on the environment its going to be used in. give ICEwm a
look if you haven't already. I have looked at XFCE but I assume they are
similar. KDE and GNOME are going to be the better looking more Windows
feeling of any WM you find if you looking for a truly slim WM I don't think
they get any Slimmer then Icewm and still look half decent.

Subject: [Ltsp-discuss] Yet another question about which X
environment to use
We're planning to move to an LTSP environment this fall. Next month, we'll
set up a training / test lab as a trial run.
Has anyone put together a comparison of Gnome vs. KDE vs. XFCE and any other
X environments? I'm interested in issues like user-friendliness, ease to
administer, performance, memory requirements.
Personally, I don't like the appearance of the XFCE desktop. I'd rather use
Gnome or KDE. Between those two, I've found KDE more user-friendly and I
like many of the K applications, including Konqueror.
I don't know much about administering Gnome or KDE, especially for a
terminal environment. Things like menu customization, how to minimize
resource usage, how to keep the desktop simple come to mind.
Any opinions welcome!
Regards,
Gerry
