Hi :) Err, i tend to stick with Unity for myself. Some of my work-colleagues couldn't cope with the simplicity and the way it doesn't look like Xp or Win7. So i had a quick look at KDE again and was surprised at how fast it's become. It even out-performed Cinnamon and Mate and even LXDE on many of our ancient machines AND it looked quite similar to Xp/Win7. Quite a few people found it much easier to use.
So i've been using it myself quite a bit and found how to fix some of the inevitable teething problems in any 'new' system. Any system needs a bit of tweaking in order to get it working the way anyone would be happy with so i've been finding a few of those out for myself. However i really like Unity now [shrugs]. For me the big advantage of KDE is that now i can do more distro-hopping and try out many different distros while keeping a fairly familiar Gui/DE/Window-manager.
