Hmm. Interesting. I could never imagine that merely mentioning KDE
would lead to a long thread, even as Moshe's talk is so close.
Even dropping the license issue (frankly, not participating in the
development of either envorinment, I was under the impression that Qt
- the stumbling block - was OpenSourced, and that was good enough for
me), it is amazing how many religious views there are on any specific
topic.
Just some personal impressions. Contrary to Ira, having an undepowered
(by modern standards) computer at home I find KDE noticeably lighter
than GNOME. Where Moshe runs away from templates I wince at the idea
of GUI development in C. Moshe will, no doubt, convince me tomorrow
that this is the best choice; I am very curious though what reasons
are behind this.
And what makes a person use one or another is ultimately
look-and-feel, I suppose. I certainly don't use either KDE or GNOME (I
have used both, and I rather like both, but then I like fvwm, too :)
as fully-fledged desktop envorinments, but just as window-managers, so
who am I to have an opinion?
