Gnome or KDE?

[Crusader]

Well, I've only seen KDE 3 (Knoppix and Suse 8.0/.1 liveeval) and Gnome 1 (the Red Hat 7 machines in the department) but there's just something cleaner and rounder about Gnome (not to mention antialiasing)... Not having worked extensively with either, I don't know what their strengths and weaknesses are. At my stage I'd have to say they're both good, though I prefer the way Gnome looks. And I know guys who swear by fluxbox, too.

I'm firmly in the KDE camp. Gnome just lacks style. And, it's my understanding that it doesn't use a lot less resources that KDE, I could be mistaken about this. I like many of the Gnome apps. I just don't care for the Gnome environment.

When I want a stripped down window manager, I just use fluxbox or windowmaker etc...
