Thanks to all for suggestions -- I tried fluxbox, but it gives me black on 
black menus (and I like to be able to read my menus...I'm just weird like 
that), so I tried IceWM, but it looks kind of lame. Then I tried blackbox, 
and it seems just right like Baby Bear's porridge -- runs nice and snappy 
(especially compared to gnome!) and looks pretty good too.
