Looking good!

btw, thanks for ripping the wallpapers.

You are welcome, but I am beginning to believe that they look in all their glory only in KDE4

Yeah, i just tried them on my Vista install, and not so great.

I have to say, some backgrounds can only look good with some operating system and their default themes.

IE. Ubuntu 7.10 and OS X Tiger

I have been lazy with understanding KDE4 better, but could it have something to do with KWin/4.0?

(But this is 4.1 Alpha 1).

thanks for the links

When it comes to beauty, there is no doubt that KDE4 is a kicka$$ desktop.
Concerning bugs and features we'll have to wait a little longer.

I thought opensuse developers r back porting many features as well, is this true?

Yes, but still KDE4 doesn't have as many features as KDE3.5

I might toy around with it, but I have never been impressed with OpenSUSE's live CDs. They always seem to be lacking in stability. Linux needs to be run from a normal hard disk.

KDE4.1 looks exciting though! How is the stability?

Well we will find out how stable it is once its out though.

Kde 4.1 I doubt is stable right now as its in development.

KDE 4 is extremely frustrating to use. It feels like an alpha. It's not stable until Slackware ships it

KDE 3 is still awesome though.

Well, it is Alpha 1, so you can imagine.



When Patrick adopts something, it is super stable. A bit too conservative, perhaps.
