Not done a whole lot with it yet, but remember that I'm a WindowMaker fogey from quite a ways back. I stuck with GNOME on Ubuntu for a while before figuring out how to get it to apt-get WindowMaker. And I recently tried a few other things, like xfce and fluxbox. Feh.

GNOME seems to have the attitude "we think we know what you want in a desktop, so put the spanners and screwdrivers away" KDE seems to have the attitude "we know we don't know exactly what you want in a desktop, so the nuts and bolts to twiddle are under these covers" :-/

I know which attitude I prefer.

And as a sidenote, I think it would be useful if Ubuntu took hold of the GNUstep project and Did Good Things (gubuntu perhaps? :-) because the GNUstep people have been turning out broken rubbish for years. Might breathe some new life into what is possible with a computer desktop after I saw xfce looking disturbingly like Yet Another Windows wannabe.
