The screenshot in your column wasn't all that different from what the address book looks like now, at least Kaddressbook. <venting> What's currently frying my goat regarding KDE is how it's hosing up my multimedia. I've got a new program installed called the Gnome Wave Cleaner for denoising WAV files (particularly those created from recording vinyl records). It's a great little program, but it won't run properly under KDE. Not only that, if I log out of KDE and log into xfce, I still have the problem. I need to exit to runlevel 3 and start xfce from the command line in order to run the program. That is just plain unacceptable and is enough to get me to blow KDE off this system altogether. I've been a KDE guy since 2.1 swayed me away from Gnome. But it's really becoming quite the pig. It's becoming every bit as unstable and bloated as anything that's come from MS. Aaaarrrrgggggghhhhhhh! </venting> I hope that KDE3 brings with it stability, but I fear that's not going to be the case...
