I haven't tried this in the last couple of alphas, but it should still
work this way: in the graphical login screen, click Session (lower left
corner) before you type your password. You should see KDE4 as an option.
Right now, the two versions of KDE can sit side by side. I'm not sure if
the KDE4 apps are sufficiently stable to replace KDE3 just yet, but I
suspect it's getting pretty close.
