And to think I used to have a certain amount of respect for you... :-)

FWIW, both KDE and GNOME are hideous bloated monstrosities that will be
kept far from my desktop for the foreseable future. Of the two, GNOME is
a) faster, and b) feels more natural to me. But neither provide anything
that I don't already have with fvwm and a bunch of xterms except a loss
of performance and flexibility.

Konqueror is one of the worst parts of KDE IMHO, being simply too slow
to use, and having a poor rendering engine to boot.
