Fast and lightweight, while still visually appealing and easy to use

Xfce is a lightweight desktop environment for various *NIX systems. Designed for productivity, it loads and executes applications fast, while conserving system resources. Xfce embodies the traditional UNIX philosophy of modularity and re-usability. It consists of a number of components that together provide the full functionality of the desktop environment. They are packaged separately and you can pick and choose from the available packages to create the best personal working environment.

    Parole Media Player has made me come to this team from GNOME. Thanks XFCE!

    @Double12 - and just you wait what version 4.8 will have to offer ;-)

    (Well, at least drag 'n drop to the panel, and home network support in Thunar, yay!)

    Cool that there's an Xfce team now. Yesterday when I looked, it hadn't been created yet! ;)

    I'm always using Xfce on my desktop. Xfce is making small improvements every version. 4.6 is great, but not realy that different from 4.4. The devs changed a lot under the hood, though. And don't forget that they are creating this whole desktop environment with just a small team.

    I just recently started using XFCE again after a jump to KDE for 4ish years and i am really glad I did. The performance is so much better with the features added in the last few years.
