s/QT/GTK|GNOME/ and you have my opinion. I can only deal with the GTK
apps by running the qt-gtk-engine which cleans them up very nicely and
gives me a clean Plastik UI.
I'm struck by this past week of re-discovering Slackware where GNOME
has been banished from the official distribution by just how sleek and
memory efficient it seems to be while running KDE. Even Firefox seems
incapable of killing it.
