Keep LXDE as small as possible, yet usable.

- Mail clients: I don't use them anymore. Thunderbird is big, yet it
contains all that you need.
- Browser: Seamonkey
- No Gnucash.

The less avilable the better. I think most people that will use LXDE
want a minimal OS and not something like xubuntu.

Abiword and Gnumeric:
Abiword is GREAT and it is very functional. I really prefer it over
OpenOffice.
Gnumeric: Works and gets the job done.
I feel that if a person needs more then these two they will know
enough to zypper in Open Office themselves. I would much rather have
the option of installing Open Office then it being installed when I
don't want it on my older LXDE computer.

Epdfview:
I prefer Epdfview to any other light weight viewers.

Mail Client:
Personally I haven't used one for years. I find that they are to slow
and can cause issues when you use more then one computer. I prefer web
gui.

Gnucash:
I would say not to install a program that most people would not use. I
personally use a spreadsheet and mint.com.
