# Which is better, KDE or Gnome? Why do you think so? Is
# the answer 'neither?'

This question has sparked off several flame-fests and the answer, for me
the answer is KDE... but for others... it's GNOME. It depends on the
point of view (ie: true 'openness' and 'freeness' in the sense of the
GPL, etc., ease of use, intuitiveness, stability, etc.)

Why is KDE better in my point of view? I just like it's relative
simplicity, usage of a toolkit (I like QT better than GTK in some
cases), and it's looks/layout. It's closer to Windows/Mac and KDE 2.1.x
is very stable and nimble on my machines (one is a P2-350 with 64MB of
RAM, one is an IBM Thinkpad with a P3-800 with 384MB, one used to be a
P-200 with 48MB).
