By default, does Gnome have the plain desktop like KDE 3 (in other words, not in a folder on the desktop like KDE 4)
I use a GNOME desktop 8 - 10 hours a day... and I have no idea what this question means.
How is the desktop "in a folder on the desktop"? The desktop is the desktop; it is a folder in the underlying file=system, but most users will never care about that. It can be any folder you set it to.
Yet another question for the opensuse-kde list. ;-) Lord only knows what the KDE devs were thinking when they created that thing. They thought up this notion of activities, and the desktop folder on what most puter people have always called a desktop has to do with that paradigm that only Mensa-class brains seem to be able to comprehend. I use different desktops for different activities, like probably most multitaskers, so can't imagine a need for a third layer of segregation, or how apps could possibly cope with extra abstractions. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
