For the Linux boxes I keep around, E16 is still, after over a decade, my preferred graphical shell. In fact, I don't think I've touched the config since around 2001. That said, I don't get all the bashing on GNOME and Unity; yeah, there are rough spots (and obligatory "power users" who think GUI means a window that shows one checkbox for each command-line option), but they're trying to do good and I applaud them for the attempt.
