Gnome There is a controversy in the Linux world. It doesn't have to do with Microsoft, or anything overtly technical. It may seem, to the outsider, the open source equivalent of the question, "Boxers or briefs?" But it's much more serious than that. More here.

There's more to life than KDE and Gnome.

There is the wonderful world of window managers and console applications that offer unique user environments. Alas, the open source world is in such a rush to the bottom (the Windows-like KDE and Mac-like Gnome, both placing a huge emphasis on eye-candy), that little innovation in user interfaces will be seen and there is so little to differentiate the open source Unix environments from their competition.
