Ingo,

it's great to see you back on the list! Let me know (off list, of
course) how you're doing.

- as I've already said, in my experience the main advantage of any
  Ubuntu derivative is the community you land into is much more
  bearable by newbies. In this sense, go XUbuntu

- wrt the Gnome/Kde bloat: surely they weigh a lot, but I'm afraid
  things are not so simple. See my other message about this.

Ciao,
	Marco
