Running a KDE app from a Gnome desktop loads up a whole bunch of KDE libraries and programs (and vice versa). Also some people are very particular about the look and feel of their applications. There are also people who are just using the system (non-technical users) and they might find it harder to deal with two different save buttons, print dialogs, and so on. So in conclusion the importance of KDE vs GNOME vs Foo depends on (amongst other things): Your computing resources (ram and disk space). Your preferences concerning look and feel. Your level of proficiency with GUI applications. Bijan -- Bijan Soleymani <bijan@psq.com> http://www.crasseux.com
