GNOME: if your VCR is blinking 12:00
KDE: if you are sad that your TV has only 6 A/V inputs

:-)

Joking aside, GNOME people and KDE people could try to describe
their environment themselves.

It *is* possible to do it in two lines:

GNOME: consistent and easy to use, even for new users
KDE: very configurable, for users who like personalization

well, I did it in just one line...
