Good and Bads of LXDE

“KDE4 has given much to the computing world at the cost of its
bloated composition. GNOME is fast & flexible but mostly liked
by hardcore conventional Linux users. LXDE is a relatively new and
highly adoptable free and open source desktop environment .
Although designed to work on the older resource-constrained
computers it works very well on new generation computers .

“LXDE is fast , uncluttered & easy to work on . As a home
user I prefer one package per task distribution installation and
LXDE works very efficiently fulfilling my this demand.

“LXDE puts less strain on my computer`s physical memory making
it much easier for me to perform my daily tasks without my mind
being diverted to the response rate of my computer as it happens on
KDE4.”
