F-Secure used to be a huge resource hog, run tens of different processes for the UI, background scanning, updates and such. It used to bog down most machines considerably. Granted, we have more processor power to spare than ever before, so has this changed?
The dm seems buggy, had problems with suspend/resume. Kept crashing constantly, my latest problem was that plasma shell stopped updating anything on screen, so the task manager showed a static image of windows long since closed and the clock was frozen... that's not the marque of a good usable desktop. Cinnamon is much less configurable, but it also seems a lot less buggy and doesn't depend on a tenth of the crap that KDE relies on.
is what I use on Linux. It is called a descendany of XMMS, supports winamp skins and can sit in one line at the top of your screen (which seems to be a wanted feature).
