I dunno, I have grown too fond of Goodstuff and a 3x2 array pager with
fvwm, I suppose.  A nice solid SteelBlue desktop with xload and xclock
swallowed into buttons. What's wrong with Icons?  

I also like being able to change desktops by clicking on a pager square or
using the middle button to drag applications from one desktop to another.

I guess you like what you are used to.

I agree, the additional install disk would not be used for "clean"
installations of new systems but only when Win95 or DOS are to be saved.
And it only works in uncompressed filesystems anyway.
