While [Ion] isn't big on EyeCandy, it's extremely functional and useful, and I've found that it helps me to get on with whatever I'm doing - unlike a normal WindowManager, you don't even notice that Ion is there after a while (and a little customization)

It looks like it would only be comfortable to use with a nice big screen. --GlynWebster
Actually, it works out quite well on my 15" screen at 800x600. This is because of its support for multiple workspaces, and the implicit tabbing. I tend to have a collection of fullscreen workspaces for general use, and a bunch of special purpose ones for apps like TheGimp and [XMMS] that work best with a specific frame layout. --StephenLewis
