Nice setup harii.

What file manager are you using? and why?
I see you're using blackbox. again, why?

How does antiX run on your box by default compared with your changes?

TIA

Man that's real nice. Post some details or maybe config files for the menu and stuff. I was thinking of loading Blackbox. Real nice.

It looks like he's using pcmanfm with the goblinx icon set (forgot where you can get it, but I've seen it around).
