    I must admit, that is well drawn, but I still prefer to keep unnecessary clutter to a minimum.

        Depends what you mean tear off menus?

          These. When I click on the dashed line at the top of the menu, it converts to a window. Admittedly, I rarely use this feature, but I still think it's cool.

            And people say Windows is bloated with useless features.

              Tear-off menus are the spawn of Satan. I've never found a use for them. When I have accidentally torn off menus, I have had to spend time to figure out how to put them back. And I'm not a newbie who gets scared if a computer does something unexpected...

              I agree with Ted, sort of. Fluxbox definitely beats KDE and GNOME if you know what you're doing. I prefer evilwm myself (I start all programs from terminals anyway), but I've used fluxbox and it's definitely a very fine WM... it's also rather popular in the Gentoo community. Still, among the mid-to-light-weight window managers (evilwm is a feather-weight WM), IceWM is my favourite, even though it does not follow the UNIXy doctrine of doing one thing and doing it well... instead, it does a little of everything, but in a way that Just Works. I never really needed to configure it much. It just did what I wanted it to do by default.

                the windows xp powertoy for multiple desktops sucks, performance wise.

                if you've an ati or nvidia card, you're much better off using their multiple desktop software with their driver packages.

                fluxbox is great, mostly because it's lighter weight than kwindows (i think that's what it is).

                my one complaint about linux is that it's not as useful on dialup as it is on broadband.
