Not to start a flamewar, but...

I have been using gnome for the last 5 years, and frankly I have decided 
to switch because of its bugginess. I lived with it until I borrowed a 
friends laptop with KDE, and used it for a few months without a single 
major issue. Under gnome I am constantly having nautilus lockup and 
requiring an entire reboot of the system to fix. This issue has existed 
on five different systems (three Desktops. two laptops) under 3 
different linux distros (debian, gentoo and fedora) of which one was not 
installed by me.

Its a shame though, because I prefer the way gnome looks to KDE, I just 
wish they would fix this bug

Oh, and Ubuntu was the only linux distro where I didnt have an issue 
with gnome, well done guys!
