I've used IceWM in past. It was great on an old laptop with little resources. So, I have a lot of respect for it. Since you have more experience with it, you should write an article about how you use it and get some screenshots. I would enjoy reading it. You comment about "it really is designed for work" resonates with me. It's very hard to quantify that. But, it's one of the things that I despise about windows and love about Linux. You can be way Way more productive, after you get settled in.

I've been using it for the last 5 years, first because i had an old box with little ram, and now that i got a new box with tons of ram, i use it because it weighs little and it flies.
I use it with no titlebar and the taskbar on auto-hide, keybindings make it easier to work with, winoptions launches all my apps full-screen, it really is designed for work.
Thanks Marco!
