That's why I use KDE still. There are things it does that I like plus my new rig is fast enough and has plenty of ram. My old rig tho, not KDE4. I don't think I would even try it. KDE4 is the reason I built this new rig. I do have Fluxbox installed tho. I have been known to use it a few times too. It is so fast it is unreal. Dale :-) :-)
