KDE - slick, polished and "fully featured".. looking forward to 3.2..

KDE, but there are a lot more than that. Athene, xfce, etc.

I always used to use KDE but now I just can't live without Gnome. I

For the biggest improvement, I choose XFCE.

Yea GNOME 2.4 is rock solid for me on my Fedora box. I'm going crazy with these gdesklets displays for GNOME. Never really got use to KDE so I went with GNOME for this one. But Xfce does look like a force to be reckon with in the near future.

yup - however something makes me feel like there's missing in XFCE but I don't really know what it is. Probably just the fact that it's so new and has to grow a little and get more recognition. I have however voted for it and will soon replace my KDE with XFCE.

XFce is not that new, to tell you the truth, been around for over 4 years that I know of. Hell, I remember when version 3.8.1 was released back in like May of 2001... The latest release is 4.0.1 which was on 11/14/2003...

Cheers..

I dont really like kde, it`s a resource hog actually.

If I had to use one, I`d stick to GNOME!

Excuse me... but I would like to vote but you are missing a very important window manager.... and yes I'm talking about IceWM... it is the one I use and I would like to vote for that..?
Sorry to bother you

I used Gnome for about 3 months, then KDE for about 3 months and then I found XFCE

I haven't looked back!

Azmeen · 11-16-2003, 08:13 AM

Used Gnome, used KDE, using XFce... will stick with XFce for a long time

Sargek · 11-16-2003, 08:16 AM

Gnome, Gnome, Gnome!
