But since you asked, ---KDE is better [ end of story ]. And it didn't used to be this way... it used to be a matter of personal preference and religion and the like... but the simple truth is that gnome has fallen seriously behind... it just doesn't even begin to provide the flexibility that I need (and get) from KDE.
I disagree with the post opinion of "try both and choose"... I'll try to save you the bother... start with KDE, stay with KDE, and learn KDE. And, by the way, the openSUSE version of KDE is 'bout as good as it gets.
And it is also incredibly easy to try out the different ones in openSUSE - just use the Session menu before you log in. I honestly tried to use gnome but I have to admit to a real preference for KDE. -- Jonathan Arnold (mailto:jdarnold@buddydog.org) Daemon Dancing in the Dark, an Open OS weblog: http://freebsd.amazingdev.com/blog/ UNIX is user-friendly.
