This is a perfect April fools joke, designed to elevate the blood
pressure of the long time users:

I switched to XFCE more than a year ago and have never looked back since.

Great! Thanks for the pointer, Mladen! I liked especially the bit
about the "default desktop from Windows 95 on through XP".

I didn't like the looks of XFCE, especially text; now I'm a happy
cinnamon user.

Kind regards

I am to switch to F16 these days, probably for the Memorial Day, and I
will install Cinnamon. I will however do some hardware upgrades first,
like bumping the macine up to 16GB of RAM. I need that for RAC within
VirtualBox and OEM 12C
