Well my experience is different. This is the first time I have used openSUSE
on a permanent basis since I started using linux so eons ago. I
installed openSUSE
10.3 specifically because I could install & run KDE3 & 4. I use KDE4 exclusively
and have uninstalled most of the KDE3 rpms save for the base system. The only
thing I dislike is the default menu. However, there is an applet for
the KDE3 menu
which I use. The only thing that crashes for me is opera 9.5 beta.
Everything else
just works. Since the beta included in the 10.3 release, KDE4 has
improved in leaps
and bounds. Yes, this release of KDE4 is the start. Not everything has
been ported
over. It is the start of good things to come.

This happens with every large software project. It can also use a bit more
development, a bit more testing. Well, it has been released. You are going
to have to live with it. Is it prefect? No, but it is improving all the time.

Please, hold off on the negativity for now. I've used KDE exclusively
since 1.0beta3 which I compiled myself. This is one of the best .0
releases. Everything is not there yet. It will get there.
