I agree with that. But so far we had no idea how to avoid this dialog without pissing off either the KDE or the GNOME guys. Basically both desktops have their advantages and disadvantages. So one solution could be to have one GNOME-openSUSE and one KDE-openSUSE and you have to choose the desktop before you download the distro. But this doesn't seem very elegant to me. Do you have any ideas how to solve that?
Last time I did the 'Installation Review', I've found out a solution for having GNOME and KDE (and other choices) there. Requirements/Additional Info: 1.) We need to have both of these choices there... 2.) Users are forced to decide even without having any clue what GNOME/KDE is. To make this decision easier for users, there could be a link or a button near every selection that would open a pop-up window with more information about it. Such as: * More textual information what is which desktop good for, which are the default desktop applications, history of the desktop... * Screen-shots of the desktop containing also those default applications (Firefox, Thunderbird, OpenOffice, KMail, ...) also with general screen-shots of a themed desktop.
