Re: GNOME: From RPM or CVS?

[Aaron <spdracer america com>]

I don't know about other peoples expierence, but gnome was really unstable
for me.  When I tried to use it last (Sept.) it crashed so often that I
was spending more time recovering from crashes than actually working (or
playing)  I went back to KDE and haven't looked back.  

Since I have a couple of alpha machines (I have an old UDB 166 still
kicking around) what other expierences do people have from the list??

I may try it again (althought I REALLY like KDE, especially it's multi
language support)
