Hey all,

Been thinking about a new distro these days and my 
old sys admin thinks Ubuntu is a better fit for 
our workstations than plain Debian.

Someone on the list suggested Fluxbuntu since I 
like the Fluxbox desktop, but then Koa, the sys 
admin, suggested Xubuntu and I believe, though I'm 
not certain, he said that this distro is 
maintained by the Ubuntu team, so it may be a 
better choice for that reason.

Xubuntu is based on the XFCE4 desktop, but 
apparently very customized.

Anyone care to give any opinions or more info on 
the topic?
