That will hugely depend on who you talk to and what they are familiar with.

Both Gnome and KDE are good desktops.

I myself prefer Gnome, Mostly because it works more like the STs and 
Amigas I use to use.

My Wife uses KDE because it works more like the Windows desktops she is 
used to.

My Co-worker started with KDE for familierity, but then switched to Gnome.

Unfrotunatly for many people this becomes a religous war simular to:

Vi vs. Emacs (I use Pico :) )
Atari vs. Commodore
etc...


The best thing to do is install both and try them out.

Having both installed is best anyway as you can then use eithers 
programs from the other desktop anyway.

Enjoy,
