best window manager
So, what one is the best, use the poll please.
I like fluxbox, its nice and light, runs great on slower computers and has some cool styles.
if you want, post screenshots too!
If your choice is not in the poll, just post it.

Do you think this is really beneficial, or even necessary?
This has been done to death, not only here, but everywhere Linux users gather. It comes down to a person's personal preference - and there's a lot of choices available. There is no absolute best one. And starting a discussion like this is practially an open invitation for bashing and flames.

Damn it! Try to but I just can't resist polls like this. Gnome all the way. For the first two years of my Linux experence I used KDE and dappled with Gnome as well as others. With Fedora I've rediscovered Gnome. I'm now a committed Gnome man.

Gnome, with Xfce in a close second place.

This has already been done and I still prefer Gnome.
Technically, Gnome and KDE aren't window managers, they are complete environments.

So how would you call that?
"I'm using GNOME complete environment."
It's kinda weird 
Or is there any other name?

It's been a long time, tried KDE in redhat 6.0, enlightenment, sawfish, mwm, etc...
I stuck with gnome and played around with enlightenment but stayed with gnome, since then...
