Alternative shell for windows
Hi foxes!
If you are using a netbook as I do, you should have a look at the alternative shell for windows, which are supposed to be :
1. lighter in memory usage,
2. fully customizable (nice for any geek).
Here are the most interesting ones, still in developement and open source :
Emerge Desktop (aka ED) Last update February 2011.
LiteStep and a french distribution. Last update April 2009.
BBLean which is a port from Blabckblox from unix. Last update december 2009.
The wikipedia page with a list of window shell replacement, and another page with kind of the same list.
