Think the opposite about what?  I don't know about candy-coatedness, 
that seems to me to be just a 'theme' issue. Either environment can be 
pretty much as plain or as out there as you like. But KDE has always 
struck me as more polished, more useful, and less buggy. And I really 
like Konqueror (the file system browser, web browser, etc.) If it 
weren't for it, I'd probably use XFCE or WindowMaker.

I'm really not trying to start a flame war, but I think KDE has an 
undeserved bad reputation perhaps based on (now resolved?) issues with 
Qt licencing and the fact that it's written in C++ and not C.
