Xubuntu is beautiful and fast. I like it much better than Ubuntu.

Xubuntu is actually pretty bloated in slow, in some tests even worse than the standard Ubuntu install. (see <http://www.linux-mag.com/cache/7520/1.html>; ).

Lubuntu, which is the "official" Ubuntu sub-distro for light fast iso for small-spec computers runs on LXDE instead of XFCE and is purportedly much better on resources and faster. I think the real reason why Xubuntu is so bad is because all the other junk from Ubuntu Gnome got packaged in with Xfce and got called Xubuntu.

It's the same thing with XFCE as the default window manager.

Well, saying "I like Xubuntu better than Ubuntu" kind of makes it seem like he thinks they're different. Xubuntu is just the name of the spin that comes with XFCE by default. If you're using Ubuntu or Xubuntu, you're still using Ubuntu.

The right comparison here would be, "I like Ubuntu's XFCE theme much better than their GNOME theme", or whatever the specific case is. Maybe he likes XFCE better altogether, and then it's "I like XFCE more than GNOME".

See what I am saying here?

Yep, my bad >.<

I disliked the Dark theme for ubuntu 9.
