Right now I'm messing with Enlightenment. I checked out a few screen shots and info on Blackbox and it looks like a really nice, basic, window manager. Just wondering if any Blackbox users could share some input and/or there thoughts on it? To me it looks like an extremely clean, simplistic WM. Am I correct in thinking that?

That's what it looks like.. Looking at some of the theme screen shots for it and it looks like you can really trick it out nice. Seems a lot more simplistic than E too. hehe ;) And for a newbie linux user that's nice.

I don't have gnome or anything like that installed.. Should I have any problems running BB?

Blackbox never fails on me and it does all I need. Keeps configuration simple. Styles are cool-looking, hackable by your average joe and tiny in size.
