Well I myself have tried most of the desktops,
KDE.......LXDE........XFCE........Openbox.......Fluxbox......Enlightenment...and
of course Gnome (my favorite!....especially the latest version!) I
can say that what I appreciate even MORE is the fact that NO two
users are the same....and that's the biggest "draw" to Linux for a
lot of people. My brother is JUST starting to get interested
enough in Linux that he's asking about installing it.....if his
2003 laptop will be up to the task etc. Anyone care to advise as
to what he should install? I personally don't think it can handle
Unity and Ubuntu.....what's the lightest distro out there?....<br>

For a new user with an older laptop... XFCE would be ideal, with
LXDE being a tad lighter, but I am partial to XFCE for ease of use.
