KDE 4.0 Released — Not Really Ready for Everyday Use
KDE 4.0 has been released, with a large number of improvements to the KDE desktop. I tried it. Unfortunately, I don’t think it is really ready for everyday use yet as there are lots of (mainly minor, at least from my brief trial) problems and issues. I’m going to stay with Gnome for the time being, but I will probably need to re-evaluate this decision in six to nine months as KDE 4 is very nice — or looks like it will be very nice once more of its problems are worked out. It’s the first release of a major new version and it has all the problems any such release will have.
