and not quite satisfied with some of the alternatives, I<br>
would suggest taking (another) look at MATE in Heisenbug.<br>
<br>
The combination of Google Chromium, VLC, and MATE<br>
has created a pleasant desktop environment that has<br>
has reduced the amount of time I run Windows 7 on my<br>
office machine.<br>
<br>
Try it, YMMV.<br>

from F17 I started using mate (though I started looking at in F16).<br>
<br>
I think mate should become the default desktop environment for
Fedora. Fedora should not be dumbing down the user experience,
please leave that to Apple & Microsoft.<br>
<br>
If people want a brain dead desktop environment, they can always use
Microsoft Window 8 metro... :-)<br>
