LXDE is based on openbox. |

I am using LXDE on a new install - excellent. I have also converted |
| 22 |
three other systems from gnome. Vastly increased productivity, no more |

crashes, much faster (esp on older hardware), and just plain nicer to |
| 24 |

When I get time I'll have to look into removing as much of gnome as |
| 27 |
possible ... are there any guides on how to do this? |
