Anyone using xfce? what do you think of it?

I've seen some nice screenshots using xfce and been
thinking about trying it out on FC4.

Is it pretty easy to switch desktops? on FC4?
How about installing xfce from fedora-extrans repo?

XFCE is a nice lightweight, friendly desktop.  It supports KDE and Gnome apps if the libs are installed.  Better on a small (12") screen than WindowMaker.

It's easy to switch from one desktop to the next using the mouse wheel and you can drag 'n' drop apps between desktops using the panel.

The reminder calendar on startup is a nice touch.

Give XFCE a try!
