There are also lots of people that have switched from KDE to GNOME 2.0,
users moving around can be expected after doing this kind of large
changes (and I really think that is a good thing). Instead of KDE and
GNOME doing the exact same work the projects are starting to find there
respective users bases, it's a good thing.

Another thing you must remember is that most of the users GNOME is
targeting aren't power users and they are not the users you most often
find on the GNOME mailing lists. They are normal people, who use a
computer because they have to.

Most people don't use a computer just because it's so much fun using the
computer itself but rather because they have to write a document, browse
the web or write an email.
