I'm probably the oddball of the group:  I run FVWM2.  It's fast/
efficient and relatively bug-free.  KDE and Gnome seem to take too
much in the way of resources for me.  The nice thing is, you have a
large variety of choices as to which window manager to run.  Try them
all and then decide which one to stick with.

Actually we have Solaris, FreeBSD, Linux, MacOSX, and Windows users
here.  Probably a good share of them are Linux users though.
