"The ROX Desktop is a lightweight alternative to GNOME or KDE built around the ROX-Filer file manager. The project's name is an abbreviation of 'RISC OS on X'. The ROX Desktop's performance is reminiscent of IceWM, and it's noticeably faster opening programs than GNOME or KDE. However, its speed comes at the expense of a needlessly redundant default configuration, and some users may balk at some of the assumptions its design makes about how they prefer to work."

that is really not so great when compared to polished desktop like Vista or OSX. I think it will be much better if OSS folks spend more time creating one useful and polished desktop instead of 10.
Waiting for the intolerant zealots to mod me down now:)
