No doubt about it... FVWM Rocks!

I've used all of these... they all work
fairly well.
Unfortunatly, I've only worked with FVWM so I can't compare it to the
rest. But I can tell You that it's __very__ lightweight, boots up
__very__ quickly and uses __very__ little resources. And there's not
even __one__ "built in" feature that You're "stuck with". For
instance... in KDE (the only other Window Manager I have experience
with) always loads the "task bar". I'm sure if I hacked around I could
find a way to __not__ start up with it. But FVWM can be so stripped down
that there's not even a back ground color. All you see is that grey mesh
that You see just before (whatever window manager You're using at the
time) starts up. Yet it has ways of creating just about any convience
you want (like a task bar).
