At this point it is meant to be one USB with multiple logins. This is
mainly because I found my systems either don't burn or understand dual
layer ISOs. So I want to play with something that will run on my
boxes.

I thought installation was via something other than anaconda. My plan
is to work on getting anaconda to run against a kickstart per desktop.
Thus if you really like the LXDE, one could run anaconda against a
kickstart that chooses items for lxde or some such thing.
