Either you know nothing about GNOME, or you're just trying to spread FUD.
> It is so much more refreshing than the doublespeak you get out of the GNOME people
What "doublespeak"?
> New GNOME look = Linux XP
The "New GNOME look" is almost the same as the 'old' GNOME look, which predates WinXP by about three years.
> Evolution = Outlook
Evolution was designed by Ximian to be a drop-in replacement for Outlook. Businesses are afraid to try new things partly because of the costs and time needed for retraining. This is not a problem with Evolution. Similarly, Konqueror was designed to be usable as both a Web browser and a file manager like IE. I see nothing wrong in that approach, provided that it is done well.
> Mono = .NET
Mono has nothing to do with GNOME. There is non Mono code in GNOME, and there are no plans to change that.

> Yeah, I've got an attitude about GNOME. It's part of an mindset that I see that doesn't believe in innovation, but merely replication.
Ummm... How's that? As much as I like KDE, it looks a lot like Windows to me. GNOME is far more flexible and customisable.
> KDE seems like an honest effort to build great software. It is funded by Linux companies, not by Microsoft.
That's true. But what does that have to do with GNOME?
