XFCE/Xubuntu has been the solution (for me) to pining for 10.04 days.

I tried Lubuntu first on the presupposition that lighter was better, but it really was too buggy and lacked some necessary features.

XUbuntu on a 2008 Dell laptop with ssd here, boots in 10 seconds, login in 15. UI is fast, no stupid eye candy animations (gimmicks imo). Couldn't be happier.

Regarding eye candy animations, I find that enabling Wobbly Windows makes my work feel more "natural". Moving windows on other systems feels stiff and unpleasant now.
