I have dreamlinux 3.5, Which is debian based, and default for the install was Xfce/GNOME. It never asked what I wanted to use, but instead everytime I log in, it looks like this:
USER:|_______________________|
PASSWORD:|___________________|
SESSION:|____________|
For session I choose either Xfce or GNOME. (I use Xfce)
Also in the control panel it gives me the option to turn on GNOME and KDE, so I can run applications that use them. They all run with the same kind of basic environment, Just with others you get access to different applications, games, what have you.
If it is a liveCD, Just run it on whatever system you have now (if you can), and test it out. Check out the control panel and see if there is an option for KDE or other Desktops, and see which you like the feel of best.
Hope this is at least a little helpful, Good luck!
added: If you're testing it on a machine with an OS already installed and you see D-INSTALL or OEM INSTALL, Leave those alone unless you want to install it permanently
