Finder Replacements? Since it appears to be impossible to disable the creation of .DS_Store files in Finder I'd like to know of alternatives to Finder.

Ideally this would be a Community Wiki with one piece of software per answer and a description of the software with instructions for installing would be great.
Possible duplication:  Are there any free alternatives to the finder.  (Note that one non-free alternative is discussed as well.)

I don't know if any of the alternatives mentioned there help you evade the metadata issue.
