What is Arch Linux?

Arch Linux is a rising star in the Linux community. It's designed to be flexible, lightweight and minimal. Arch Linux is the best distribution when it comes to picking something which is totally under user's control. When a user installs Arch, they are actually building their entire OS and choose components they need. Installing Arch requires a certain level of knowledge with the command line.

What is Xfce Desktop Environment?

Xfce is a lightweight desktop environment for UNIX-like operating systems. It aims to be fast and low on system resources, while still being visually appealing and user friendly.
Like GNOME 2, Xfce is based on the GTK+ 2 toolkit. It uses the Xfwm window manager. Its configuration is entirely mouse-driven, with the configuration files hidden from the casual user.
