I one of the few (?) people who use "none of the above" (meaning all of the 
"modern" desktop managers).  I use fvwm in MWM mode and have a Tcl/Tk coded 
"menu manager" program.  My screen looks almost like a 1980s vintage 
VaxStation 3000 running DECWindows.  Right now on C6 and using as little of 
Gnome2 as it will let me (one panel).  File Manage set to /bin/true. No 
"start" menu nonsense, no desktop icons either, just a fvwm iconbox for 
running programs and a 10 element Workspace switcher.  And yes, I use actual 
xterms.
