[ubuntu-studio-users] Ubuntu Studio and Mate

Has anyone tried replacing the default XFCE desktop with MATE? (as used 
in Linux Mint).

Or have anyone tried installing Linux Mint and then installed the Ubuntu 
Studio software into that?

I have installed Linux Mint 15 and saw the Ubuntu Studio packages as 
options to install.

I prefer the Mate environment to XFCE, and Caja is a better file manager 
than what comes with XFCE. I tried installing Nemo in Ubuntu Studio but 
it was forever maximising the CPU and freezing, so I uninstalled it. 
Also I find lately that the CPU is often running close to max in Ubuntu 
Studio, but if I boot into Linux Mint it is much better with not much 
CPU usage.
