From Gnome to KDE

I have had it with Gnome! I experience too many problems with GTK+ and Gnome. I also feel constrained, and I miss the ability to customise my desktop! With the promise of KDE 4 soon to come; I will be using KDE and Qt based application on my new Lenovo 3000 N100.

In the coming weeks I will be posting about KDE equivalencies for popular (and the one's I use) Gnome applications.

I was sure you had migrated a long time ago. You've been playing the KDE advocate for a long, long time now

I have been using KDE software in Gnome, I have not migrated yet.

I was using GNOME for 2 or 3 years before I switched back to KDE (since KDE 4 is on the way). I didn't have any problems with GNOME. In fact it was working perfect and fast. KDE was too buggy few years back. It's much better now, but unless you have a good system, it might be slow.

You might be interested in checking out my Week with KDE challenge that I ran on my blog a few weeks ago. As a regular, long-time gnome user it was quite a change but I learned a lot and got a lot of comments from readers on suggested apps and the differences between the two.
