It's been a few years since we ran such a poll. Let's see what most people prefer these days.

I think that there should more options in the poll, at least to include enlightenment, blackbox/fluxbox, and IceWM.
I personally like IceWM more than any other WM because it is very lightweight, easy to configure, has no bloat -> makes you more productive, and because you can assign shortcuts for anything.
IceWM + a good theme (the defaults are horribles) + gtk applications (qt are slow to start) + terminal (the one form XFCE) = best desktop experience.
Anyone should give it a try, and there's a very good report here in OSNews about it: http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=7774&page=1
Anyway, I also like how clean and appealing the GNOME desktop looks, and I like the integration KDE has (Kontact, Kopete, Kparts, etc) , it also has the best file manager in the world (Konqueror).
