Umm, kind Neil,

I run Debian SID, I have GNOME, KDE, LXDE, OpenBox, XFCE, WindowMaker
and a couple of others installed on my desktop and laptop machines.

I can at login, select *ANY* of these desktops when I login. XFCE
happens to be my default. I only run a couple of GNOME programs...
(Evolution and Pidgin as I can't be asked to move to something else).

You also must realize, that with Ubuntu, you don't have to "REINSTALL"
to get a different desktop... you just have to add the packages you need
to get the Desktop you want.

Same goes for most every Desktop Linux out there, unless they are
dedicated to one and ONE *ONLY*.

Please remember, just because you want a different interface, Linux as a
whole does not need to be re-installed. Just install the pertinent
packages.
