If you want 'old style', you have a number of choices. If you want
'current', Gnome3 (and KDE whatever) are your choices.
Personally, I liked the simplicity of Gnome3 when it was mainstreamed two
years ago and have never looked back.
Of course, some things are a little headscratching (like the lack of
ability to set an 'array' of workspaces in favor of one vertical list),
but those are easly Googlable.
For a server, *IF* I need X at all, I normaly install XFCE.
