Killing Clutter With The Antidesktop

Posted by timothy on from the your-brain-is-your-panel dept.

Espectr0 writes "Hate window managers? Cannot live without one? Well, you can, kind of.

It depends on how many tasks you want to keep track of in your head, too.

    How do you explain 60+fps in quake3 on my Athlon at home then? KDE/Gnome == bloat. Windowmaker, otoh, is very snappy. Need drag/drop filemanager? Try out Rox-Filer. There is no reason for crap like nautilus to even exist. It's bloated useless crap.
