This is going to be short and sweet.

Gnome is stable and nicely polished... KDE is lots of eye candy, very 
tweakable, however it's slightly unstable.

Personally, I prefer KDE because of it's tweability.

Look at it this way, Gnome is like a volvo...plain and kinda ugly, but stable 
and safe....:P  yes yes, feel free to flame me :P
