[LUNI] KDE vs. GNOME

[Jim Harvey]

I converted to Fluxbox this week, on both my laptop and my mainframe.  Got tired 
of the approx. 1 minute for Gnome or KDE to load.  Fluxbox comes up in less than 
3 seconds. The menus have everything I need.

I hope to get one sided answer 'cuz i don't really want to try out both, although i have a feeling that there is a fair distribution of both the desktops. If it helps I am a hardcore windows user, and want to completely quit using it. So i will use linux for everything, from developing to listening to music, watching dvds. to surfing... you get the picture.
