"very simple and works perfectly. I use it all the time to test systems that I cannot properly test in a virtual machine" |

mdm
"works even better than lightdm" |
hexchat
"I use it less than once a month but when I need it it works just great and it's faster and smaller than many browser chat plugins." |
thunar

libreoffice-writer
"many times better than MS Office and more stable than openoffice.org" |

firefox
