XFce is awesome...

As a SysAdmin in a mixed environment with Solaris and HPUX, I was looking for a
Linux version of CDE that would help users transition from the corporate
workstations to the new kid on the block. At first I tried, the Triteal version
of CDE that RedHat released in '97, it was very slow on the early pentiums and
full of bugs. RedHat eventually stopped supporting it due to security problems
and Triteal folded, selling the package to Xi Graphics. I decided to search for
a Open Source solution and found "the wonderful little GUI that could", in XFce.
It is blazingly fast, Xwindows pop onto your desktop as soon you release your
mouse. It is a breeze to setup, configure and customize. Because of the
familiarity of the ToolBar, users transition easily from CDE to the Linux XFce
desktop and feel at ease with the new OS. Due to the familiar desktop, training
and documentation are made simpler, which enhances the user's acceptance of
Linux in production environments. It helps Linux look and feel like a
professional workstation environment, and allows management to overlook the
inevitable infiltration of Linux onto the desktop. XFce also makes a great
Notebook desktop... light, fast, with easy to use buttons, it can be tuned for
older video screens and fewer colors.
