@Linux4Everyone Pearl Desktop 8 has a lot going for it, as a hybrid of XFCE and LXDE with a lot of Compiz Fusion thrown in. What it isn't is snappy; what it is is gorgeous with a lot of Mac-ness thrown in. Only one dev for this baby, and he is kinda ultra-conservative (gotta wipe a few things you may not agree with in Firefox and Kodi), and the repos are down often, but it's definitely fun.
