Think about this, you're asking a Kubuntu mailing list
whether it's worthwhile installing Kubuntu  :-)

What do I say?  I say try it out and see what you
think.

The KDE environment gives me all sorts of things that
Gnome doesn't (Konqueror and Quanta+ sprinimmediately
to mind).  I know that I could run these things on the
Gnome desktop, but in the end I just get on better
with KDE.  It's a personal thing.

I also run a few things that would be considered to be
Gnome, such as Gimp, and some that are simply agnostic
about where they fit in.

I find KDE to be far better integrated than Gnome,
with all sorts of apps happily co-operating, and a
properly working clipboard.

You'll probably get along fine in Gnome, never having
tried KDE.  If KDE disappeared overnight (yes, I know
why this wouldn't happen), I'm sure I'd get along
alright in Gnome.

However, give me a choice right now and, though I have
a little peek at Gnome every now and then, I'd choose
KDE every time!

Andrew.
