LOL.  I'm of two minds.  I _think_ QT adds a lot of overhead that makes many
KDE apps inherently less responsive than Gnome ones - but that's just a
sense from _very_ little knowledge :-)  otoh, even though I rarely care
about eye candy, I just find QT apps _look_ much more professional than GTK
ones.

I'm currently getting into UML tools.  KDE's Umbrello is really beautiful,
and looks way better than the Java app I am using.  It only has one
problem - it doesn't properly handle UML output from any other UML tool I
use, or write it out in the format that the other tools read :-)  As Billy
Crystal used to say on Saturday Night Live - "It's better to loook goood
that to be goood".
