I've made my peace with Gnome, but I modify it to make a bit more KDE-like. One panel on the bottom, single click on icons, always open with a browser window and modify that window to get rid of the main and side menus, etc. I started with KDE but like Gnome now because it seems lighter and bit more responsive on my computers.
I still have openSUSE 11 on (what is now) the backup computer. The default was KDE 4, but I reinstalled with KDE 3.5. KDE 4 was just too slow. But that was the first release and I think it's getting better now.
You could always try XFCE. It seems much lighter than both of them.
I have tried XFCE. I like it, except it seems that getting nice fonts is a pain.
