Fine, if its suits you. Then again, if that is all you do, why use Gnome: XFCE or even LXDE will do all that fine and they are lighter than Gnome and change less.

I quite like XFCE, but I use KDE for a few reasons. It has tiling extensions and with a large monitor tiling works better for me.I like a lot of KDE applications (Dolphin and Kate in particular) and they integrate a bit better with KDE (widgets in panels, KRunner).

YMMV.

I don't care enough to install non default desktops. You are coming at it from the perspective of trying to find something that really works well for you, and that's fine.

I'm coming at it from the perspective of I really don't care, unless there is some show stopper that forces me to.
