I like xmonad, but it's not an option.

(annoying spelling point made to reinforce the fact that few people know what a monad is)

(and even fewer could explain it)

(and I'm not one of those)

I went with insensitive clod, but only 'cause I haven't tried any of them yet.

I've been meaning too, and awesome looks the most promising from what I've seen.

Both dwm and awesome annoyed me. Therefore, my vote goes to xmonad due to the fact that I have not tried it. Yay for skewing poll results!

xnomad is ok, but I run Insensitive clod - it just works better.

I'm not awesome enough to use a tiling window manager unfortunately.

I finally got around to trying xmonad, and I must admit that it is much nicer than the other two. However, I still prefer Openbox.

I don't use a PC-XT for a desktop. So, neither.

XMonad for me; it's all about the Haskell.

xnomad?

I like xmonad, though it was kind of a bitch to install (Debian testing).
