In my experience I have found that my choice of desktop system relies on many things: - phase of the moon - current sun-spot activity - how I feel at the time
none of these reasons are particularly objective. Right now, I use Gnome at work and KDE at home. This changes periodically. I think that possibly the KDE file manager is less buggy than that Nautilus thing which looks like it has promise but is not quite there yet, but even then this may not be fair as I have not spent the time to try to suss out either of them. What I *really* like is that fact that I *have* choice and that choice can depend on what I feel like at the time. Both "regimes" seem to have their foibles and it is those foibles that help me make my subjective choice.
