RedHat's own rpm's for KDE will give you something that is a crippled version 
of KDE. So, if you're not into building from source, get the rpm's at:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/kde-redhat/

One other clear benefit is that arts is a superior sound daemon to esd. Also, 
KDE is intent on being as configurable as possible. Gnome has moved away from 
that philosophy in recent years. Kmail is not as feature rich as Evolution, 
but that is changing. I think by KDE 3.2 (due in a couple of months) KMail 
will be all the way there.
