I was absolutely shocked by how good LXDE is. The problem is that you can't even talk about this stuff to a Windows user because it is beyond their wildest imagination. One look at KDE's screen would look like a trip to the future--and it is!

I've been using Unity a lot lately. Mostly that is because I was in the first crop of Unity haters. Seems like Gnome2 made Unity a lot better by putting the heat on. Unity started out universally hated and has survived simply because nobody was ever forced to use it. In five minutes you could load up LXDE, Mate, Gnome, Gnome 2 or any of the other more traditional menu based GUIs. Unity got to live to achieve really decent functionality. Now it works pretty darned well.

I think KDE is still my favorite, just because it feels so cutting edge. I have to put Linux on a larger hard drive so I can do some more things I have to do, like a full installation of SH4/Fall of the Rising Sun Ultimate. What I should do is take screenies and video of various Linux GUIs so people can realize that we're not speaking Greek here!
