I can't give an honest answer to you Wade. I have been using linux since
1997 and have used several different distro's a few with KDE, Till I
found Warty, before upgrading to fiesty, I installed KDE along with
Gnome on dapper and used it some, but did not feel as comfortable with
it as Gnome. it may be just me but it seemed like kde had to much eye
candy for me, but it may be that I like the more simple interface of
gnome. I also had some small problems show up after installing KDE in
dapper which may have been some screwup on my part also. I have been
using linux as my sole desktop for years now(but am nowhere near being
an expert on anything), since redhat 5.2 which was crude to say the
least, but have never really taking a liking to kde, may be it works to
much like XP.
