I agree with Ralph, neither is absolutely "preferable" as preference is a
personal matter.  Programs will run under either as long as the required
libraries are present - most distributions will install libraries for both.
I'm no expert in the subject, but technically I don't think either Gnome or
KDE are "window managers"; they are desktop environments, into which you can
plug window managers of your choosing.  For example, Sawfish is (was?) the
default window manager for Gnome.
