Read the post again. I said nothing about favourable, unfavourable or anything else like that. I only said that KDE4 is not KDE3 (doh...) so if you run KDE4 thinking you are going to get something like KDE3 you are going to be disappointed. It is not like KDE3, it is not built on KDE3, it is not an evolution of KDE3. It is different, and stands on it's own. Comparisons with KDE3 are unfair, sort of like comparing you with your father is unfair. > I'm working quite hard at getting used to it (it's even the default grub > choice), but it's uphill all the way. Um, dude.... grub selects a kernel. Or an OS. But never a DE. The dm does that. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
