Some questions in regards to XFCE


Hey folks.

Please move this if it's in the wrong forum. Thanks.


Ok, well, currently I use KDE - Mainly because it came with SuSE and I'm not too sure about Gnome.

Now, I've seen some screenshots of XFCE, and they're pretty good. For example this one:
http://xfce.org/images/screenshots/snap4.png


Firstly: How easy would it be to get my XFCE looking like that? Showing memory usage, CPU, etc. etc.?

Secondly: Currently in SuSE with KDE I don't use Konsole much. Mainly because I really don't need to, and everything I do in SuSE currently doesn't require me to use Konsole. By using XFCE, does that automatically mean I'll have to use Konsole more often?

Thirdly: Is there a control centre in XFCE, like there is in KDE?

Four: Can I use YaST in XFCE, or is this only for KDE?

Five: Does XFCE come with any programs like KDE does? Or am I able to use KDE programs in XFCE such as Kate, KWord, etc?


These are all my current questions.

Thanks

Oh, and a sixth question too which I forgot. SuSE 9.1 comes with XFCE however it only comes with XFCE 3 which is pretty old, to say the least. After I download XFCE, how easy would it be to install?

Thanks.
