Religion, mostly. See emacs vs vi. Personally, I detested KDE because it
was fat, bloated and slow. Plus, gtk+ was a dream to code in compared to
Qt. But hey, after some years of playing catch up, GNOME is just as fat,
bloated and slow, too. Possibly even edging ahead these days.

Like Mike, I use neither, but occasionally find need to use a GNOME or KDE
app from within my X environment. That's when the unnecessary dependencies
*really* start pissing me off...
