I moved to Fedora from several months with CentOS as a desktop. 
Eventually I wanted to do things its ageing core doesn't want to do. I'd 
tried every version of Gnome 3 since its release and been seriously 
annoyed. Not because it wasn't Gnome 2, but just because I don't like 
needing to throw my mouse all over the screen and I don't agree with 
their assumptions about keyboard use.  F18's Gnome Shell works for me, 
and rather well, only because a few extensions have matured enough to 
eliminate most of my annoyances. If I had to use a default Gnome Shell, 
I would not.

I grew up in Linux with Slackware, for several versions over the years  
from 3, I think, to 12.  Plus Red Hat, Suse, etc. Also played with early 
and current versions of Ubuntu, plus Mint.    Debian is not my style.

Display quality, font rendering, and on-screen responsiveness are more 
important to me than a DE.  Those qualities are more important to me 
than the DE's design. (After all, they're all more alike than 
different:  Click on icon, stuff happens.)
