For those of you who have not followed the comment thread on the 'On Favouritism, Apologies, and Black Helicopters' story: I there promised to write an article about all the customisations I do on KDE to make it look and (more importantly) behave in my own preferred way; as a sort of Christmas present, so to speak (it is not like it is a fast news day today). Read on!

"KDE has succeeded Gnome for all around ease of configuration changes ..."
Southern.Pride, don't you became a troll/framer? KDE has different desktop goal than GNOME has. I really think that both worlds are perfect for different users, don't you think so?
I cannot compare the spatial explore of nautilus with tabs of Konqueror, even for you are more useful the tabs and for me probably the spatial view.
My brother has KUbuntu and me Ubuntu, both uses different desktops and both believes in "configurability" different meanings. If you look on "change wallpaper" in GNOME, you will not see "slideshow" option or gradients in all options (even they were in GNOME 1!) because GNOME strides to show minimalist options to the user.
Is hard to say that OK button has no sense because is redundant (in the line of Apply, OK, Cancel, because OK is ussualy implemented as press of Apply+Cancel). That is one thing that GNOME HIG say about.
I love KDE and I recommend it over the Windows users, which wants a "as close as possible" desktop when they switch to Linux, and probably that is the way, but I really believe that GNOME in therms of a new desktop has a different (and for me easier) than KDE.
I think that is better to think that KDE get the Windows users as GNOME has to, because free software is it all about, and not state that one desktop is better than another (KDE vs GNOME).
