IceWM rocks too.  Most of the benefits of GUIs such as KDE, without the
footprint.

Put it this way - I have an old 100MHz Pentium laptop with 16Mb RAM, and
it can do IceWM.  It's not fast, but it's certainly usable.

Put IceWM on a slow machine and it's fast (compared to many GUIs) - put
it on a fast machine and it SCREAMS!

I run it on my own AMD64 at home...

Austin.
