If it's complete? What was missing?

You could try the latest Ubuntu or Gnoppix LiveCDs.

They taste different. There are some feature inequalities, depending on what
you find important. KDE has options out the wazoo, even to the point of
including a search interface in their control panel. GNOME is concentrating
on its 'Just Works' philosophy, so that in-depth, technical configuration
becomes unnecessary.

It comes down to what you know and what you like. :-)
