4 I've been enjoying LXDE for a long time now. I have installed it along
5 with XFCE (my machines are low on resources*). I can't explain why, but
6 I like LXDE better than XFCE. I've also tried KDE - looks great but as
7 I mentioned I have limited computing power, used GNOME 2 a bit.
8 Recently I have installed and tested i3 wm and liked it but imho
9 tiling wms are best when used on 'big' displays. I don't use it because
10 none of my displays is wider than 1024 px.

12 * I doubt that I'd settle for a more demanding DE even if I had
13 a lot of resources because, you know, possession of great amount
14 of ram for example doesn't justify memory wastage.
15 The situation gets worse when you need to compile great amounts of
16 c++ code.
