Small, stable. A window manager, NOT a desktop manager. Load whatever
bells you want on top. I usually do the wissling myself :)
Seriously: figure out what you need, not what you want. Find a window or
desktop manager that can handle just that. Then determine the parts you don't
need permanently, and move them to menus.

I use fluxbox, but have none of the bells and
whistles in use. It's
so stripped down, it reminds me of using OpenWindows under SunOS 4.1.3!
You can have that, you know. Just install olwm. :-)
