I have to use KDE for one of my two beta machines. It is orking out
alright for the machine that wil not load GNOME yet. (screen message
says something about a tmp file, ORBIT or someting needing root
permission. I still haven't figured out this one.
Personally,I thought that KDE looked too XPish for my tastes before the
bluecurve project. I also thought that KDE looked too cartoonish with
their ICON's. With the RH work, it feels close to GNOME for me. I still
prefer GNOME.
It is great to have both GNOME and KDE included and to have the feel of
both to be similar enough to allow using one for another one's failure
to not be so chalenging.
It might be "useless" for some users, but it is better to have KDE as a
heavily featured "failsafe" window manager.
