XFCE, is that really future-? It looks dated as heck, not bashing it or anything, just saying. If Gnome Shell wasn't my long term desktop I would prob use XFCE. Gnome shell only comes alive tho if your machine isn't slow as Fu*%

Depends on how you define "future-proof." Personally, I'm glad XFCE hasn't gone the way of Gnome, so I see it as future-proof in the sense that it's not likely to go "tablet crazy" like so many other things have. So while you may call it dated, I call it relieving. Change for the sake of change is never a good idea in my book. --Sean
