KDE on every distro I install, I don't mind using XFCE sometimes. I have Gnome installed but mostly just for the libs and depends, so I can run gnome apps within KDE.

KDE most of the time. I have installed KDE. Gnome, Xfce and fvwm in my lappy ( Debian ) and I pick any of those according to mood only.

YAK

(yet another KDE)

Enlightenment seems really cool, though. . . I was experimenting with it last year (well, actually 2006), but couldn't quite get it to work.

Well, i voted for others, because my favorite wm is fvwm. (And be it only for the f=feline in it )
In the moment i'm in Gnome, but only, because i have a fresh Debian-Lennyinstall and i didn't restart X till now (few days). But in a short while i probably will get my fvwmrc from my debian and configure it here in lenny, and use that. There is simply nothing better than a wm with completely configurable keyboardshortcuts.

I used to do crazy things with the desktop, but now I find myself using KDE more and more often.

I've been using IceWM for over five years. It's highly configurable and blindingly fast. If there is a faster window manager I don't know what it is.

Using Gnome again. I really do not care for the current half KDE3/half KDE4 that's in most distros at the moment. And I'm not sure I like where KDE4 is heading, in general. Maybe once it's at 4.2 I'll give it another shot.
