Just a little correction. E is not based on Darwin, which is the
kernel of Mac OS X. Actually, none of the Window Managers depend on
any kernel. They are dependent only on the X server. E basically is
not a DE. It does not have the integrated software with it. You need
it integrate everything by yourself. It is the prettiest window
manager in the world. While E project started on 1996, Darwin was born
on 2000. So you see E is not based on Darwin.

I used it as my primary desktop and loved it until Ubuntu came into
the screen. I still sometimes login into it while I want to see some
eye-candy but do not want to hamper my CPU and RAM. Believe me, it's
eye candy is astonishing. Unlike compiz you do not need a 3D graphics
card for this to run.

There are some more window manager out there, afterstep, fluxbox, ion3
are some of my favourite. Enjoy.
