Sorry I misunderstood you.
GMC is the file manager for GNOME It adds drag and drop functionally to the
desktop.
GNOME add a constant look and feel to all gnome apps. It also allows apps to
talk to one another (drag and drop). You can drag a jpg from the desktop
to ee (another gnome app) and bingo there is the picture.
GNOME applets are mini programs that "plant" them selves into the panel.
Things like CPU monitor and drive mount (this is one of my favorites it
lets you mount your cdrom drive with the click of the mouse).
So you see GNOME has lots of uses.
