I'd run Windows first, and that is saying a lot. Just me speaking for me, in comparison I like the way KDE is VERY configurable while Gnome, to me, is like having Mom (or worse yet, Stallman) "I know better" in the computer. Fsck that. > or > XFCE better. Used it long time, it's great for gaming machines and very configurable for a minimal installation on older gear, which is why I use it when i do. What's to keep us from jerking KDE4 out by the roots and just installing 3.5? If KDE4 isn't ready yet for prime-time, why release it?? Under what conditions does it fold like a house of cards? Is it happy with a gig or more of memory? Is it unhappy with less than a gig of memory?? Video requirements stricter? > Time will tell. Ain't that the truth!!
