I like KDE , becouse i've been using KDE since i remember Dont like GNOME seen it on others pc's but it didnt take my attention. Although Xchat , gaim , GIMP come from gnome and i use them i like KDE more:P
almost the time i run blackbox or just in console (test mode), but betwen KDE or Gnome, i prefer Gnome (Dropline), depending on configurations is the performance, so i keep it light and my resources don't crash it, and i think is coolest and nice than KDE.
I prefer Gnome, mostly because that is what RedHat came with by default back in the day when I installed it (as my first Linux). I've heard from my linux-guru friend that GTK is better than QT (not as resource intensive?) so I've always kind of worked off of that assumption (until I get enough time to research and find out for myself). I actually think KDE looks better (in general). Eventually I may switch to KDE once I become better aquainted with Linux, maybe not. For now, though, I'll stick with what I know best... Gnome.
I prefer gnome and i use gnome with the most distros i have used up to now exept for Slackware in which i found out that gnome was really slow compared to kde so i use kde with mys server (slackware 10.2)
KDE!!!! last time i tried gnome you had to use its weird installer and it really messed up my slackware box and resulted in my having to format. I dont think ill ever use gnome again.

As for DE (Desktop Environments); I actually got burnt out using them. I have went with WM (Window Manager). I got 2 personal favorites; Fluxbox and Openbox.
PS: There is a great site with a huge listing of various DE's and WM's. I second the vote for Fluxbox.
I havent used linux that much to get a user oppinion but i did try ubuntu and kde (i've got suse installed). But isn't gnome less resource dependant then KDE? KDE looks better but so does windows xp in comparison with 2000 and there weren't any big differences except for more slowdowns on xp. And as for now i prefer gnome unless someone tells me something i dont know about kde ^^
I prefer gnome over KDE anytime, sure gnome doesn't look like KDE but then again it doesn't run like KDE, it's much faster and reliable. Also I don't like all those flashy things you get with KDE like jumping mini icons when you click something and all the unecessery stuff. Gnome is much more simple and that's why I use it.
