Yes, I've used KDE for ages, since it was prebeta. Every release
of GNOME I've used though has been very buggy compared to KDE. A
lot of apps die, or kill part of the UI, or stop the UI from
coming up at all. GNOME in Red Hat 6.2 however is much more
stable, so I'm glad to see that GNOME is improving greatly. It
still seems to be too buggy for me though at this point. I'm
going to install Helix-GNOME when I find the time, and try it out
first. If that doesn't work out, I'll be back to KDE until Red
Hat 7.0 comes out, or a new Helix release, whichever comes first.
I'm itching to ditch KDE for GNOME, but stability comes #1.

That is my feeling as well. It doesn't stop me from keeping both
installed though. KDE to get work done in, and GNOME to blow
everyone's minds at the cool GUI Linux has. ;o) GNOME is
excellent at getting new Linux drones. ;o)
In the end, I see GNOME the answer... Likely soon too. If only
they'd have started before KDE did and harnessed the power of the
KDE developers... ;o)
