   We had a similar debate in openSUSE some time ago; what prevailed was to   
   have the distribution desktop agnostic, no default. The user choose   
   which one will be the default at installation time. The dvd contains   
   both gnome and kde, and there are others available at install time by   
   using remote repositories, like XFCE.   
      
   However, the commercial SUSE version (SLE) comes with gnome. KDE is   
   available through community work (ie, they get KDE from openSUSE).
