Hey Folks,
I recently installed Ubuntu on an older machine. I
love it. I haven't tested many of the newer distro's
out there so my opinion is in ignorance of other just
as refined distro's. After looking at the distro's
website, I saw a parallel project Kunbuntu. I haven't
installed this out yet, but seeing how the Ununtu
project handled the two desktops made me wonder about
which one is used more, and why.
My initial impression of Gnome is favorable. It's
less "windowy" than KDE, but is notable harder to
configure / modify. It also seems a bit sluggish when
loading programs. Granted that I'm running it on a
400mhz system; everything is going to be a little
slow, but Gnome just seems a little sluggish in
comparison from how KDE seemed.
What are your experiences with the two desktops? Why
do you use one over the other? Is one desktop easier
to program for than the other? Are there
architectural differences that make one better than
the other?
If possible, please leave the flames out of this. I'm
just looking for impressions and opinions.
Thanks,
Rob
