Wow, old thread. :)  

Both Gnome and KDE are "powersucking" GUIs.  They're better than Windows, 
for the most part, but they're still to klunky for my taste.  However, if 
you want the look-n-feel of windows, there's nothing quite like KDE.  

To clarify: these ALL run on "Xwindow" (there's no 's').  X is the 
underlying foundation for the whole thing, and your window manager (kwm 
(comes with kde), enlightenment, windowmaker, etc.) and all applications 
are just clients to the "X Server."  I could go on for a long time, but I 
think that's enough. :)
