Just a little 'plug'. XFCE is pretty good for fast and slow computers.
I use it on most of my computers. From my main AMD64 right down to my
humble gateways and media centers. It runs well, has a good interface.
Easily customisable. Best of all it works a charm at integrating with
Gnome and KDE. Just make sure to use XFCE 4 not anything before.
