You can run kde apps within gnome as well. I have Gnome and I can run
perfectly k3b. As for fuzziness in the gdm login screen, it is most probably
due to the screen resolution. Set your default in the xorg.conf file.

Personally I have always preferred KDE. The full KDE package also includes
KOffice and a large range of apps.

One good thing I like is KDE will run the gnome apps but gnome won't run
KDE
apps.
So you don't loose out on any choices with KDE.

It is in ports at /usr/ports/x11/kde3, but you may want to get hold of the
pre-built package and install from that.
