Let's see how this goes.

Run arch linux using openbox on everything I own except for one newish laptop which has features that aren't supported as well as I'd like yet under linux.

While we're on Linux. Does anyone use wine? If so, how well does it run?
Most things run smoothly through it, there are a few things that WINE has troubles with but still.

And just in general, anyone on a low power machine(e.g. a netbook) go for the xfce desktop environment, I used to use it on my old P4 and it was fantastic, and still use it on my netbook. Which I use Ubuntu on exclusively.

I have a desktop and a laptop. I use the laptop for school work which runs Linux Mint 15 - I'm really happy with it.
I barely use my desktop even though it's more powerful, that runs windows 7.
