funnily enough, same thing happens with linux too. i use slackware
(with my own custom-rolled kernel) and am eagerly awaiting slack13,
which has the KDE 4.1. i am beginning to wonder if my 2004 compaq
presario laptop can take that load.... 

of course, there are plenty other, rather important differences
too.. :-))
