Mr. Owlett, I would just like to add to the usual suggestions since you're interested in tinkering with Debian, a worthy hobby to be sure, that no one has suggested the now forgotten UDE with the insightful motto: "get used to it." http://udeproject.sourceforge.net/download.html UDE may be mostly unknown but the latest stable version was updated on 5-4-2013. so there's life there yet. You can tinker with some compiling of the source code if you like. The project does not use any special GUI-Libraries such as Qt or GTK+ and is based on the standard Xlibs this makes UDE faster. I used UDE for a long time at lease while it was in the usual repositories; but, to really feel the UDE experience, your system needs to be very uncluttered as it were, and I've given this up for the comfortable but more complex world of XFCE4. My reasons notwithstanding, I would just say that UDE was like Galadriel's mirror, that wonderful glassy black surface reflecting back a pensive face (your face) peering into the void. It was wonderfully existential at the time. -- CK
