Linux Mint 9 Xfce
Last week I looked at the Debian version of Linux Mint. This time around I’m going to cover the Xfce version. We all know that there are passionate partisans of the GNOME and KDE versions of Linux Mint; yet, oddly, you rarely hear about people raving about the Xfce version. That’s a shame, because sometimes less is truly more. Linux Mint 9 Xfce has a lot to offer to those who have limited hardware, or who simply prefer not to deal with the eye-candy bloat of GNOME or KDE.
What’s New In This Release
New Software Manager
New Backup Tool
Improved Look & Feel

I’ll cover the Software Manager in the software section of the review, and I’ll talk about the look and feel in the desktop section.
