Attaboy, Mladen!  Next, the steam-driven-GUI!  :)

FVWM2 in SUSE is not bad either.  And MUCH LESS 
resource-hungry than KDE/Gnome. If I can figure out 
how to handle DVD editing/recording with that one, it 
will become my main environment.

100% agreed, personally.  But like rare steaks, it takes 
a connoisseur to appreciate them.   Not sure how well 
all that will wash with the minimalist-brain approach 
of the average HR hirer: all they want is moronic drones 
who can click in sync with version x.y.z of the software.  
Preferably with a certification confirming their total lack 
of any other IT knowledge.
