Day 18: Conclusion

      Today we're going to go over the desktop environments I've written about and sum the series up. 

First Off Gnome

I'd say Gnome is for the productive user.  A user who needs to easily be able to do stuff but also wants beauty.  It's for the type of people who love beauty but still want to get the job done.

Xfce4

  For the user who doesn't want to go through editing .xinitrc.  This is the only desktop where you don't have to go through and make .xinitrc work with it.  You can start it with the command startxfce4.

KDE 

For the ease of the user.  With KDE you can make everything easy.  You can make it so there's a widget where you write your notes or where you put your important files or just to do anything.  KDE is to do anything with a click.

Unity

Unity is for the ease, the beauty and one of the stereo type desktops (because Ubuntu's is so popular).  Unity makes it easy to find anything you want.  What's not on your favorites bar is in dash home and can be found just with an easy click and a search.  Dash home can also be used to search music, movies and even more on the internet.

LXDE

For the slow PC.  LXDE is really just for the PC that runs really slow, there's nothing special about it.  But it's also good for the speedy user, the one that wants his computer as fast as can be.
