A picture of Lara Croft in new Tomb Raider hand in hand with Lara Croft from the old Tomb raider Series.
The new one labeled GNOME and the old one KDE.
Imo they are both solid technologically, but KDE delivers much more with it's defaults. Obviously you can theme both to hell and back and make them look however you want and get whatever functionality you want, but default KDE is so much more usable than default gnome it's not even a competition.
