    CDE - A Blast from the Past
    CDE (Common Desktop Environment) is a commercial Graphical User Interface 
    for UNIX and various other flavors, which was jointly developed by Hewlett 
    Packard, IBM, Novell and Sun Microsystems. The Window Manager for CDE is

    Different Linux
    Desktop Interfaces
    There are two primary desktop interfaces in the Linux world that you are likely to encounter. GNOME 
    and KDE. These are known as Window Managers. Below the Window Manager sits the actual desktop 
    environment - X11. The Window Managers give the Desktop Interface its look and feel.
    Like with the different Linux Distributions, whichever Desktop interface you choose is dependent on 
    which you prefer, and which one fits your specific purpose.

    XFce is a lightweight desktop environment for UNIX

    now based on the GTK+ toolkit.

    KDE
    KDE is a modern network transparent desktop environment which uses the Qt cross-platform GUI 
    toolkit. It contains a base set of applications such as a window manager (called kwm), web browser, 
    instant messenger, and integrated help system, all with a consistent look and feel, and translations 
    for over 50 languages.
    GNOME
    GNOME is the default Window Manager for Redhat and Ubuntu, and the one that you will be using 
    on the Linux Terminal Server. The GNOME (pronounced “Gah-NOME”) project’s aim is to build a 
    complete, user-friendly desktop based entirely on free software. It is not a window manager, and in 
    fact has to be run in conjunction with a window manager. GNOME has advanced rapidly and is now 
    very popular, particularly on the Linux platform.
