I should also pimp bluetile: http://bluetile.org/ which uses XMonad as a library and doesn't require the editing of Haskell code for configuration. Bluetile has both tiling and floating window configurations. My mother-in-law and nmy father both run Ubuntu machines (currently Lucid) and when it comes time to upgrade their machines to something where Unity or Gnome3 are the only options, I will probably switch them to Bluetile of some other Xmonad based WM.
