I guess you don't know me as well as you think you do...  That said, 
it took me a surprisingly long time to realize what I had done, 
since I assumed that it was more likely a problem with the network 
cable or something.

Well, all I aim to achieve is something that either looks exactly 
like my old set up (with sawfish) but with better fonts, or 
something that looks and feels as much like a Mac OS X (or NeXTstep) 
desktop as possible, unless there's something mind-blowingly better 
out there.

That's why I asked about the Ximian solution, since it looked like 
the most likely thing to be in that third category, but also looks 
like something you really have to commit to.
