   You cannot standarize on a simple WM because then you would loose marketing   
   ground. A lot of people just sees the flash when deciding which IT solution to   
   use. This is why I think it is great that Knoppix comes with LXDE and can have   
   Compiz enabled. You can use compiz for demonstrations and getting the kids   
   drooling over how cool the whole thing looks. Then whenh you need to do actual   
   work you disable it and get a lean desktop that does nto get in your way.
