Beryl is a window manager, rather than a desktop environment - that's one of the biggest misconceptions there are about Linux and desktops. Gnome is a DE, and uses the Metacity window manager, KDE is the desktop environment, and by default, uses Kwin, and Xfce is a desktop environment, and its window manager is xfwm. One of the beautiful things about Linux is the modularity - you can mix and match nearly anything you want - you can use Beryl instead of any desktop environment's window manager. You can even use it on its own, without a desktop environment, much like many people do with Enlightenment, and just live without the icons on the desktop, task bars, etc.

I will agree with you, though - it's beautiful.
