I use Gnome. The main annoying reason was: For some reason KDE cannot handle very fast internet connections.
In konqueror (spelling?) if I download a big file from the internet Kde becomes totally unresponsive till I get the file. It can't handle pulling 1-3.5MByte/sec over internet2.... :( This gets seriously annoying.... and I can't but help useing konqueror while in KDE... :) While in gnome I use mozilla or plain netscape. I feel like KDE is "one big app"... kinda like staroffice 5.2. While in gnome each app seems to "be on it's own". Sure galeon/mozilla might slow to a crawl while I'm doing large transfers... but the rest of my desktop keeps responding. :) It's more in my head... I just don't like everything being so interdependant... Kde gives me that feeling.
