While the GNOME libs are an annoyance, I do run GNOME on almost every Linux
and FreeBSD install. In all fairness, I run KDE on a database server machine,
because I feel it's a more stable environment.
IOW, I'm not about to endorse GNOME for stability, but I do feel it's the best
GUI enhancements to come to any flavor of x. I am willing to use it as I think
it offers more advantages than it does disadvantages.
Gtk+ would have been a better compromise, since GNOME uses it, but there are
several reasons to use GNOME I 'spose, and I'm not sure who exactly decided to
use GNOME, not that it matters, it's not a bad choice.
