(From our point of view)
- Compatibility with applications written for other environments
Default all programs work correctly (other environment imports), but we are not kept in mind other specifications
(specially Gnome - KDE).
- Graphics optimization
The advanced graphics as gradients, have been optimized and eliminated of certain elements that have dynamic size changes
to avoid the unnecessary CPU use.
- All depths support
The graphics are configured automatically to the chosen depth for the screen.
- Optimization of resources
The internal resources have been diminished in considerable form
(buttons, icons) and it seems to give a simple appearance, but it's satisfactory
for the RAM memory usage. (the icons are not understood by all the people like
they should be it).
- Little dependence of extra graphic libraries
Xige only uses the graphic Xlib library, it is not dependent of extra libraries and squatter little space in hard disk.
- Main Utility
Ideal for development environments, laptops and less recent hardware.
