Gnome vs KDE in Ubuntu - 2009
,----[ Quote ]
| Two very popular Desktop Environments , that are used by two major Ubuntu
| distributions.
|
| Ubuntu uses as default Gnome and Kubuntu uses KDE. If we are to keep the
| facts straight we need to also take into consideration the versions. Ubuntu
| OS taken into consideration is 8.10 called (Intrepid Ibex). Ubuntu 8.10 uses
| Gnome 2.24 and Kubuntu 8.10 uses KDE 4.1.

GNOME's Stormy Peters on the Most Important Desktop Issue
,----[ Quote ]
| The GNOME Foundation executive director, Stormy Peters, recently wrote a bit
| about why the focus on "the KDE versus GNOME" debate is not the real issue.

| (KDE/GNOME/XFCE etc...)
| * Customized based on country/language/religion
| * Customized with extra applications/drivers/multimedia
| codecs
| * Customized for a specific purpose
| (scientific/forensic/academic etc...)
