Novell recently made GNOME the default WM in their business desktop offer-
ing (or something to that effect). They give full choice in all other dis-
tributions although and give no priority to one over another. The rest
seem to be going in KDE's directions and hate mail like "die KDE, die"
come from frustrated GNOME developers, which let us face, do a decent job.
I'm with KDE. 4 years ago I liked Enlightment.

PS - I might as well add that GNOME in Ubuntu is more stable, predicatable
and reliable than KDE on SuSE.
