No, because Gnome 4 yrs. ago was a "joke" and one reason I stayed right

Me too. I've never been comfortable with Novell's relationship with
MickySoft, plus even though there are some good things I can say about
the "new" KDE, there's a lot of configurability lost after 3.5, and I've
not been happy about it. So, maybe the time is right for me to at least
consider a switch.
