I installed the latest stable release of Debian and I don't like the interface I want it to be similar to the Debian desktop installed by default like the Raspberry Pi has. Is there a way to change this easily I have been searching but cannot find it. I want a start style menu and icons on the desktop.

I like xfce more than lxde
# apt-get install xorg xfce4 xfce4-goodies thunar-archive-plugin synaptic gdebi wicd
There are more gui to choose for debian. Install GUI on debian 7 wheezy
The raspberry pi uses LXDE.
Installation instructions for a Debian desktop are located here: https://wiki.debian.org/LXDE
