Uh, oh. It's an us & them thing.

Mandrake defaults to KDE. But you can choose gnome, or one of several 
other WM's. It's gotta default to one - that's the nature of a default 
setting. During the install, you can choose not to install KDE at all, 
and go with gnome. Gnome is fully supported. Like it or not, KDE is more 
popular, so it got the nod as the default WM.

It's not at all like RH / Fedora and the Bluecurve dumbed down WM, so 
you can't really tell if you're running KDE or gnome.

BTW - when did you become a gnome zealot? I thought you were all about XFCE.

In any case... linux / oss is all about choice. Why you gotta be hatin'?
