> But like it or not it is fast loosing to Gnome IMHO.

Well, Google disagrees

http://www.google.com/trends?q=kde%2C+gnome%2C+xfce&c...

Apparently GNOME generates _slightly_ more searches than KDE (since 2006), but that's it. The trend is for both to go slowly down. XFCE is very small in comparison.
Curiously, it looks like KDE is much more news-worthy than GNOME, starting also in 2006 (casuality?).

Statistics...
Try to search both of the terms.

There are other gnomes than GNOME... World of Warcraft, Garden...
But there are not many other kdes than KDE!
