I've also rooted my Desire now and installed CyanogenMod7. It's great! I now have all the apps I want installed, with spare space. It's noticeably faster and more like ICS to use than Gingerbread on the whole. it's like having a new phone.
I tried to use spenceey's method, but because I was on 2.3.3 it didn't work - this was a bit scary, but instead I used Revolutionary (http://www.revolutionary.io) to root and get S-OFF.
I'd highly recommend this if you've got a Desire or Wildfire, it's really easy and it will also ask if you want to download and install Revolutionary recovery (an updated and reskinned version of clockworkmod, which is worth having).
