In my opinion there's no magic line where things on one side are window
managers and things on the other side are desktop environments. I think
we can all agree that Unity, KDE and Gnome are desktop environments,
and dwm and i3 are window managers, but what's Xfce? What's LXDE?
What's Openbox?

I think of de/wm as a spectrum, not a 1/0.
