well, the shape of KDE4.0 was so bad that you hardly find anything 
worser for a long time - not that bad as KDE4.0 is no compliment and my 
biggest problem is that after a few weeks i did not find anything 
improved for me which justifies again throwing away things after they 
finally worked

minutes ago i had again to kill my session hard because the control bar 
did no longer react and ALT+TAB was not able to bring systray minimized 
applications in the foreground

after only 10 hours that's bad given that when i was at vacation the 
only reason to logout where updates in the past

frankly if only oxygen would look identical, but no, now it also wastes 
a lot of screenheight in the titlebar and with all that widescreen 
monitors screenheight is expensive - i don't need wasted space for 
touchscreens on a desktop workstation
