I use KDE, a large part of the reason is the apps. Opera, Amarok, K3B,
Qalculate, Quanta Plus, Koffice 1.5, Kaffeine, Konsole, Kate/Kdevelop,
KPatience. I could keep going... anyways... I came to KDE in a round
about way, my general path looks something like this:

Apple IIgs --> DOS/Win3.x/Win9x/WinNT --> RadHat 5 --> SuSE --> Win2k
--> Linux --> Gnome/FreeBSD 4.7 --> XFCE/FreeBSD --> KDE/FreeBSD
5.3+/6.x.

I should also add that I regularly use Mac OS X by choice at work. I
think the best suggestion I can offer you is to try everything.
