"The performance of desktop computers increases year by year. This gives the programmers great opportunities to further improve the desktop experience of the users. However, what should you do when you have an old computer that is not capable of running the latest and hottest software? How can you benefit from the great software that is X.org when you can't run a desktop that takes advantage of its best features? No need for upgrading your PC, when you can have a usable alternative with the current one. Let me introduce you to Enlightenment E17 - the window manager with minimal hardware requirements that may amaze you."

I think what he was meaning by that was E17 although classed as alpha grade, is just as stable as Windows 98 or ME. And they have had 10 years of development behind them.
I personally disagree, Win98 was very stable for me, but E17 is as unstable as WinME.
Things are looking good for this desktop though.

... but I can't find the license for e17.
That sudden paragraph devoted to attacking ten-year-old Windows releases is a surprise, though... and the article seems a bit fannish, without much hard information. It sure looks nice, though.
