Thanks for your kind words, Grazie Nicola.

Musix v3 is based comes with KDE 4, we're tweaking it to match our
particular desktop. But we don't forget other lighter desktop enviroments as
in previous versions, so we have at least IceWM and Openbox (I myself am
working on it because it is perfect for save resources for live playing on
the UMPC).

Ciao.
