Games - I don't have any installed at the moment, so I'm not sure if
there are any Gnome / KDE differences, but the page does say "Default
Gnome Games"
Multimedia - All the menu drill downs seem to be gnome specific (eg. CD
Player "/Applications > Sound & Video > CD Player"/
Financial - Kmymoney still needs to be filled in ( I've never used the
financial software before, but I'd intended on installing it and filling
that bit in later)
Network - has a few Gnome specific menu drill downs on it as well.
None of these are huge things, but for completeness should be touched up.

Dan O'Brien
