To me, using xfce so far is the bitter pill to swallow and the only
viable alternative to avoid having to switch the distro.
And for me, it took only a short time to get XFCE looking almost exactly
like Gnome 2 and working even better. I love it and even if the Gnome
devs introduced an option to make Gnome 3 look and work the way I want
I'd never go back because XFCE is so much more responsive and isn't as
resource intensive. YMMV, of course, but I, at least, am glad I made
the change.
