KDE4 Released!

I know what I’m doing tonight! I’ve been a long time Gnome fan but KDE has always intrigued me. When I did my latest Ubuntu update I was going to switch but then I found out v4 was just around the corner so decided to wait. Today they officially released KDE4 and it looks good.

Tonight I think I’ll backup my /home directory and give it a shot.

    New interface looks very Mac OS X like. I see its even named “Oxygen”. Apple’s is “Aqua”. Air, Water, they’re all elements! But hey it does look like something I may set up in Parallels.

    Well I have it installed. It is VERY shiny. Unfortunately I’m not sure how usable it is… granted this is on my existing Gnome system so who knows but I’ve had a few things crash and there are some things that I just don’t know what they are - like some weird desktop icons. Need to read up a bit more on what’s new. I also really hate the new main menu. Way to much clicking.

    The skin is OK. A bit too Mac like for me. For now I’m back to Gnome.
