I was a little late getting to the compiz party but I used it as my default WM for years and years. It is still being updated and is now extremely stable (which I understand was the biggest issue in its early days). I have surrendered to the darkside though and just use KDE cause it does everything that almost anyone could need now and it does it pretty good.
I havent thought about compiz since college. I was so cool with my vdm. Until it was time to play WoW and I had to boot to windows. Wasnt too bad, though, got it down to a few minutes by disabling all that shiny nonsense in 7 to make it look like xp.
I remember those nights configuring compiz to perfection. It had amazing look and feel. It was a sight to behold.
Then I realized how useless it was and reverted it all to standard 2D workspaces.
