Well all I have to say is WOW! I re-installed Linux but decided to try KDE my default instead of GNOME (I have loaded KDE before but just accessed the tools though GNOME) and KDE seem's to have a cleaner feel and much faster application load times.
I had been using GNOME for couple year's and so far I think KDE is much better than GNOME, but guess only time will tell.
Heh, sorry for the irrelevent post but I just had to tell someone ;)

Although, uh, I don't use it or Gnome, personally.
fluxbox.sourceforge.net does it for me. That, a couple of transparent Aterms, Gkrellm ticking away in the corner, Sylpeed for mail, and Firebird for my browser. With XMMS for music. Lovely.

I like the beliefs and such that are put forth by the Gnome project (or how I interpret them, anyway) but I have to agree that KDE is so very much more pleasing to use. It's a lot more friendly to write software for, too.Although, uh, I don't use it or Gnome, personally.
