Performance and advantages

Enlightenment is a light weight Desktop Shell, so your computer will run at a very high speed with incredible 2D effects, such as animations, fading, shadows and much more. E17 doesn't need a 3D card for all of its effects to run properly, since it can use Xcompmgr and the E17 module “Bling”. Thanks to the OpenGEU configuration tool, you’ll be able to easily activate and deactivate these desktop effects with a mouse click! What’s more exciting about our Desktop Effects is that they run properly on any kind of hardware, even on Virtual Machines!
