Well, personally I preffer much more Gnome to KDE for
a few reasons:

 - I make daily use of Mozilla, Gaim, GnomeMeeting and
Dia that basically are Gtk apps and so run better with
Gnome than KDE.  I also spend many hours in front of
the command line and I think the gnome terminal is
much more polished than the KDE terminal and I work
faster with it.

 - I hate the Qt libraries and its license that, from
my point of view is too much radical and could create
long term problems since it does N_O_T allow for LGPL
(Lesser General Public Licence). Since KDE is build
with Qt I think it's a big problem.

 - I don't like Konqueron since it doesn't run many
JavaScript enabled pages, and so I can't use, for
example, Yahoo mail popups menus. But Konqueron is
everywhere within KDE and I can't disable it.

 Anyway if you decide to use GNOME go to RedHat or
Debian. They have a much more "correct" GNOME than the
default included with SuSE (I don't know if the Ximian
version of Gnome correct the mistakes). I hope this
will change soon with Novell adquiring Ximian and
SuSE.
