For what is worth, the procedure I usually follow is: I download the

netinstall FC ISO and customize the default package selection

unchecking everything. This leaves me with a barebones console-only

installation and I built up from there. Then you can install gdm, x11

and the wm of your choice. It doesn't require much hackery, just the

knowledge of the packages you need.
That said, perhaps that's too tinkery for you. Another option is

giving a try to XFCE. That's what I use since I find it gives me an

adequate balance between features and performance. There is a

ready-made XFCE spin of FC10 that you could try.
