Or to tempt the flame-war that always seems to occur when comparing the |

philosophy of Gnome vs. KDE. |

Gnome provides you with what 90% of the users need, and with effort, you |
| 5 |
can access most of what the rest want. KDE floods you with every |
| 6 |
conceivable option and leaves it up to you to ignore the un-needed |
| 7 |
cruft, and hides the option to remove the excess. |

Who's right. Who cares. IMNSHO it is extremely ignorant and arrogant to |
| 10 |
assume that one philosophy is superior to the other. Hopefully with the |
| 11 |
major and minor Desktop Environments competing, everyone can be |
| 12 |
satisfied. |
