I personally don't care for anti-aliasing and such, but I
just like the look and feel of XFCE4 better than XFCE.
Also, a lot of apps move from GTK 1 to GTK 2 which gives the
chance to remove libgtk1 sooner or later. Anyway, there are
still worlds between sth. like GNOME or KDE and XFCE4 in
terms of "light-weightiness".
Cheers!
