    Google funds mozilla. (so far 150 million dollars)
    Google buys DoubleClick.
    Google makes money from ads.
    If mozilla stoped ads Google would be unhappy.

    IE, Opera and Safari like ads.

    No thank yuo.

    While the integrated nature of KDE was a big initial benefit, that structure became it's downfall. The structure limits the free flow of development. Outsider development is limited, as the integrated apps have the prime seat, and others can't really "compete".

    No major apps use KDE. I don't see that changing, even if KDE was better than Betamax.
    Firefox,Thunderbird,Claws-Mail, Gaim/Pidgin all are GTK based. Not sure what the toolkit of Openoffice and Abiword, but it's not KDE/QT. The next browser running on the next generation Konquer engine (KHTML,WebCore,WebKit), will have a GTK front end.

    I used to think the same thing as you GNOME. In fact, I don't use GNOME. I use XFCE, with GTK apps.
