Hope they give an option for KUbuntu, which uses the KDE desktop instead of Gnome.

I personally just encourage people to switch to KDE.This "users are idiots, and are confused by functionality" mentality of Gnome is a disease. If you think your users are idiots, only idiots will use it. I don't use Gnome, because in striving to be simple, it has long since reached the point where it simply doesn't do what I need it to do.Please, just tell people to use KDE.

I've seen reports that the fellow who is the project lead for Ubuntu actually uses Kubuntu as his primary desktop.
