Minimal and satisfying.

Plus a major learning curve

I tried learning Rio once. I never figured it out.

It is a learning curve. I leave it stock and I mostly got the mouse cords down.

Plan 9 itself is really hard. I was never even able to change me keyboard layout. Not that I gave it very much effort.

Yeah it is hard. I think to change the keyboard layout you have to edit the source code, I'm not sure. I use an US qwerty.

I love Plan9 interface, but never got used to their mouse-centric user interface. I actually like CWM - being similar to Plan9 look and feel.

I love it. I installed on a Lenovo T500. The 9front community is awesome.

The aesthetics remind me of the old Macs from my high school computer lab. Will it run on a 68k Hershey bar? That'd be fun. I have a couple laying around too...

Good question! I don't know if plan 9 has been ported to that.
