The default selection of packages. You'll probably be missing some useful 
packages (e.g. one #fedora-kde user who installed from the DVD complained 
about kcm_touchpad missing) which you have to track down by hand (which 
means that you first need to figure out that they exist in the first place), 
and you'll have unwanted GNOME apps polluting your menus. You'll also end up 
with GDM rather than KDM if you have both KDE and GNOME installed, unless 
you started from the KDE spin which is customized to set KDM to be the 
default display manager even if you add GDM after the fact.
