I switched mostly to XFCE some time back - originally because it was so
much faster on small boxes and later because Gnome 2.x was near unusable
on a netbook.

Gnome 3.0 I did give a spin and wasn't very impressed as basic stuff
didn't seem to work, performance of the compositor was awful and simple
configuration tasks now seemed to involve writing custom extensions which
seemed rather backward for what Gnome claims it wants.

I shall see what 3.2 is like as hopefully that will have fixed some of
the biggest catastrophes. KDE 4.0 was also pretty bad.
