30 Window Managers in 30 Days

WindowMaker was quite nice, specially the docklets.

It replaced AfterStep for me (around 1999) and I used it mainly until 2004.

Nowadays I just use whatever is the default in any OS I use, as I no longer have the patient to tinker with settings.

Gnome 3 is turning out to be the best DE on any platform. It's by far the most polished and innovative I've seen.

I never thought I'd say that 3 years ago.

Hey! It's not dead yet!

(Entered from my WindowMaker desktop). Development's even restarted in the past year or so, after being on hiatus (other than bug support) since ~2005.
