Look at how fast slackware lost a LARGE proportion of its desktop users when
they dropped Gnome some 7 or 8 years ago, I know a lot of slackware server
users, but I can think of only one single slackware desktop user in my
contact list, it works great, detects all netbook stuff and what have you,
but KDE sucks big time, its almost as bloatware as XP :P

I triple boot XP pro, OpensuSe and Ubuntu, if Ubuntu drop Gnome, l then it
gets simpler, I'll only boot XP and OpenSuSe.
