I must admit, I tried Fluxbox a long time ago. Even on this fast rig, |
| 27 |
AMD2500+, it was nice and fast. I just like KDE and all the eye candy. |
| 28 |
I have a slide show for my desktop. Love my ladies. LOL |

That fluxbox sure is fast. It would be great for a slow rig, 400MHz or |
| 31 |
less. Would make a good light desktop for a noobie on a server since it |
| 32 |
is so light. I like you did not like Gnome at all. Maybe if I had a |
| 33 |
slower rig. I ran KDE on a 400MHz machine before, bloated Mandrake at |
| 34 |
that. LOL |

I can't believe I just connected and I can send email with Mozilla. If |
| 42 |
my connection would just speed up a bit. o_O |
