Since there are so many different distro's, with many specializing in various DE's and WM's, it might perhaps be better to focus on reviewing some of those, ie. Ubuntu for GNOME, SUSE for KDE, Wolvix or Xenwalk for XFCE, Elive for e17, Fluxbuntu or DSL for Fluxbox, PuppyLinux for (ICEWM?), etc. Although some folks DO try out different WM's within thier chosen distro after some time, those environments are typically very plane jane and many come with a good deal of config issues since no developmental work has gone into them from the mother distro. Most people are more likely to try out a livecd of a distro which spec's in one they are interested in to get a real feel for what a fully working and tweaked out WM environment is all about.
