Fedora 15 is a lot like Windows OS's.. irritating, offensive, difficult to use with ease, nauseating to try...

Actually I wonder how many people who have posted so much about G-2
being retained, and how difficult G-3 is, have actually used KDE
current in f15? I have been using it for a while now and it really is
nice - and a completely different DE to the first shaky new KDE 4.0
that emerged only a couple of versions ago.... it is very usable and
worthy of daily use now as KDE4.6 or 4.7...

You are right G-2 is yesterday's desktop - today we have G-3 for those
that like it, and it may be a hard pill for some to swallow, even if
it does head down the tablet route (sorry - could not resist!) but if
it is impossible to swallow then I would really recommend people do
try KDE or one of the other DEs that have been mentioned. There are
good alternatives to G-3.
