02/21/2007  II
Relevance: 8.15
For years, the lightweight Xfce has been a popular desktop environment for Linux distributions running on older hardware, thanks to its lower demand on resources as compared to KDE and GNOME; it's an ideal desktop for machines with less than 256MB of memory. Until recently, however, using Xfce was a little laborious, but with its latest release last month, Xfce is a much more usable desktop environment.

Relevance: 7.75
Xfce isn't for everyone, but for servers or minimal desktop systems, it's just what the doctor ordered.

For this article, I am reviewing the Xfce Fedora Spin based on Fedora 8 and Xfce4.
