Why choose the Xfce desktop? What'ts so great about it? Well for one, it's pretty fast. Xfce manages to cut a lot of the excess stuff out of it that you would normally find in a fresh desktop. The menu effects and extra stuff that tends to use a little more resources is gone. This is especially nice when you want to use the latest and greatest Ubuntu release, but have an older computer that maybe doesn't play as well with Unity. The big downside for a lot of people would probably be the appearance of Xfce. It definitely lacks the elegance and eye candy of other desktop environments. However, what it lacks in cosmetic appearance it makes up for in speed and low resource usage.
*Note: I do recommend to make sure you have all of your files and data backed up before performing any major install or change to your system just to be on the safe side. With that being said, we will use the Ubuntu Software Center instead of the Terminal to accomplish this install.
