<div>Keep in mind that Lubuntu, on the first place, is designed and targeting old machines.

I think everyone should stop insisting on the fact Lubuntu is for old rusty hardware. It's true, but it's only part of the story (I guess). Here are my views on the topic:<br>
<br>
* Hardware only a few years old, but low-level (the kind poor people buy) also suffer from the constant bloat in requirements imposed by pachyderms like compiz.<br>
* Even owners of brand new and decently powerful hardware will beneficiate of light, reactive, well-designed systems.<br>
* In any case, spoiling resources for about no gain is *bad*: morally, ecologically, etc...<br>
<br>
As an amateur programmer, I am far to be obsessed with efficiency, but each time I can spare resources without sacrificing too much important aspects of development (code clarity, programmer time, maintenance...), I am pleased to do it.<br>
