Although KDE has historically had more financial backing and been a stable graphic environment when compared to the often buggy Gnome, more recently Gnome, thus Ubuntu has underwent a great deal of development.  Both desktop environments are in a good place now developmentally so the final choice is more or less preference.  Purest geeks seem to have always preferred Gnome as they believe that KDE is too "corporate," whatever that means.  Although KDE has historically had more financial backing and been a stable graphic environment when compared to the often buggy Gnome, more recently Gnome, thus Ubuntu has underwent a great deal of development.  Both desktop environments are in a good place now developmentally so the final choice is more or less preference.  Purest geeks seem to have always preferred Gnome as they believe that KDE is too "corporate," whatever that means. ''A warning about using Ubuntu based Linux distributions:  The folks over at Ubuntu think they know better than the original architects of Linux.  Consequently in newer releases of Ubuntu many configuration standards, file locations, and startup scripts no longer work correctly, in that if you don't use the graphical configuration tool in Unity to make changes then you will have problems.  This is a very unfortunate Microsoft type mentality that is creeping into Ubuntu and may ultimately destroy the integrity of the distribution.''
