that's one of the great things about the massive variety for me - I can
run gnome for every day stuff and switch to fluxbox for super minimal when
I want to perform, or concentrate on making things without distraction.
in that sense - it is important in an indirect way to making music, as why
should the same interface you'd use for office tasks work as well for
music making?
