I switched mostly to XFCE some time back - originally because it was so much faster on small boxes and later because Gnome 2.x was near unusable on a netbook. Gnome 3.0 I did give a spin and wasn't very impressed as basic stuff didn't seem to work, performance of the compositor was awful and simple configuration tasks now seemed to involve writing custom extensions which seemed rather backward for what Gnome claims it wants. I shall see what 3.2 is like as hopefully that will have fixed some of the biggest catastrophes. KDE 4.0 was also pretty bad.
