Sorta offtopic, but KDE4 is the best desktop gui out there.  4.2.2 is
rock solid, has a great feature set and is really fast even on older
hardware.  GNOME is crap.  They have lost all desire for addressing the
user interface for the users.  I consider newer GNOME versions as
experimental versions.
