Haha, good game.
NO! KDE > XFCE. -_-
I do... I think that it's the easiest to use for people just starting out or just switched from Windows. Other than that, it's terrible :P
Haha, you guys are all losers for even arguing about it.
Use the one you feel most comfortable in, and stick with it. If that's KDE, fine. If it's Gnome or WindowMaker or Fluxbox or XFCE, that's fine too.
Of course, that doesn't preclude the possibility of me making fun of people for using KDE..
You're a loser for arguing with the losers!
I still haven't decided which I like best and still probably spend half my time in runlevel 3 (Arch is incredibly good for learning IMO).
GNOME FOR THE WIN! =(
Down with Gnome and all things gnomish. Go xfce/KDE!

xfce is a lot like Gnome, actually :P
I think xfce is more like /dev/null than anything else =p
XFCE is my favorite since KDE totally owns my PC.

Yeah, so? Gnome has a silent "g", and thus is tricky. xfce isn't tricky. There's nothing tricky about it. Watch: "xfce". See what I mean? xfce > Gnome.

I pronounce it "Gee nome", personally. I don't know why, but I thought it sounded better at some point in history, so eh? :)
/me smacks iago
"Nnome"
Like how you would pronounce it of the garden variety.

We all do it. I've pronounced your name in my head "e ah go (yago)" for a while. At one point, I thought Spht had an a in it or something, I've always thought of him as "Sphalt (asphalt)". Unsure why, first impressions just stick, especially name pronunciations.

I've always thought "spit" was more appropriate. :P
Here's the problem: a window manager is necessary for Linux to compete with Windows. However, if you don't learn Linux outside of the window manager, you can't hardly do anything powerful with it. You'll miss bash scripting, you'll not get the commands, you won't know how to fix it when it breaks.
That's why they made X terminals. :)
su :X

I've always pronounced his name "Sfit." How's it supposed to be pronounced?
It's pronounced "Meow (http://forum.valhallalegends.com/index.php?topic=13166.0)"

Haha. I think picking names that are impossible to understand how to pronounce by the laws of language (unless you make it obvious that it's an acronym or something) is mean! :(
I've always pronounced it "spit".
"Meow" is a link, btw.
It was just FYI :)
I pronounce spht: Spit and pronounce iago: eye-a-go
I pronounce sidoh: Sihdow.

I pronounce sidoh: Sihdow.
I initially pronounced iago "eye - aye - go," but I've realized that was wrong and now see it as "yah - go."
Spht seems to be ss - fit to me, but I don't know. It's a weird name.
I'm actually unsure of the correct pronounciation of "Sidoh," since it's not a real word or name, but I say "Sigh - Dough." "Sid - Oh" works fine too, though. :)
