Red Hat 4? That book is _way_ out of date. Ignore anything it says about
graphical interfaces.
You should install both so that you can use apps from both environments. KDE
apps will work in GNOME and vice-versa. With both installed, you can try them
and see for yourself. Any "X is better than Y" argument is bound to be very
subjective.
I strongly suggest that you install Mandrake 9.0 (to be released next month).
The versions of GNOME and KDE included in Mandrake 9.0 are _far_ better than the
ones in 8.2.
Also remember that there are dozens of other environments out there, including
Enlightenment and XFce, to name only a few.
