KDE comes with a Win95 like desktop.(A desktop where you can save documents
and create folders like in Windows95)

KDE comes with an XDM type server. (KDM) This allows you to have XDM do the
X Authentication(I believe...not sure...) while using another manager that
supports KDE extensions. I believe that what WindowMaker is stating is that
they support the KDE Extensions.

I don't know exactly the answers to these last questions, I am a newbie to
KDE myself...
