Understood.  Well, I do take advantage of a lot that Enlightenment has 
to offer.  I used to use a lot more of the epplets, but have replaced 
them with gkrellm for the most part.  I rely on Enlightenment 
remembering where everything goes and I use both virtual desktops as 
well as multiple desktops (there is a difference).

I can run through some of the available eyecandy as well, although I 
don't use it as, it get's to the point where you want to use the cpu for 
something more useful. :)
