Poll: KDE or Gnome

[sparkle]

So, what do you guys think is best for a Linux newbie who is gonna run Mandrake 7.2

 

[Quake]

Kde is better because Linux Mandrake 7.2 has the newest version (kde 2.0)

KDE for newbies it's the most "windows" like. but Gnome is pretty darn cool 😉
anyway I use both depends on my mood

 

[Shuxclams]

I am using Gnome on a Mandrake 7 install, look forward to seeing KDE 2 though.

how do you use both kde and gnome? i hear kde is faster. is that true?

 

[mofo888]

gnome baby!
kde is alright, it depends on your personal taste.
Both are perfectly functional, and well designed.

As stated, KDE is better if you're running Mandrake since that has always been their focus. I personally run WindowMaker though

Gnome here. A lot more options than KDE, and it's not so Windows alike

 

[atom]

Gnome, but KDE on occasion. Both are good.

 

[Quake]

Kde is a alot faster than Gnome in Mandrake

Helix-Gnome w/Sawfish. If I couldn't run that then I would run Windomaker. I ran Windowmaker for quite some time and I still like it.

I run both but I prefer Gnome, It rocks, but KDE kinda makes me feel nostalgic, brings me back to the early slackware days... I think Each has its good points.

 

[MGMorden]

KDE. It's just a slicker interface to me.

 

[SUOrangeman]

Ximian 😛 No, I don't have it. I'd rather get XFree86 4.0.2 up and smokin' first.
