Thank you Leonard. I'm downloading the LXDE "spin" right now.

The article pointed to by the preceding link looks like almost pure
propaganda to me.

I like the way OpenBSD does server and desktop and workstation. You
install Core minus X and games, and bang, you have server. Install X
and your favorite window manager and bang, you have desktop, with all
the services you need.
