NOT DESKTOP ENVIROMENTS!! aka kde, gnome
So which one works for you? Vote and explain why.
Those who vote for the last option please say what and why.
My choice:
WindowMaker:
Quite possibly the 1st reason would by that It was the only manager that was "pretty" as compared to other ones back in 1998. WindowMaker is very minimalistic, maybe not as much as *box windowmanager but modeled around the NeXTStep design by NeXT thus somewhat sharing the same foundations as OS X. Its stable, quick and probably the strongest point of this window manager is the dockapps (www.dockapps.org). There is tons of dockapps availbale, most of them are useless and just look pretty but there is alot of usefull ones as well, I would even go as far as saying that I dont think I could live without some of them (lol). The dock also serves a great applaunch facility, by simply dragging an application over to the dock makes that application launch icon part of the windowmanager quickly.
I've tried alot different window managers but very quickly came back to windowmaker, its just right (for me).
The only cons I have with wmaker is that the titlebars have only two settings (looks) howerver both are astheticly pleasing.
