Mandrake already has KDE as its default environment. At the same time, it
does not hinder those of us who like to use something else (e.g. GNOME). In
fact, with Mandrake 7.2's new menuing system, we can easily switch between
environments and still keep the same menus. I believe that we already have
the ideal solution.
