Your right. They never said they were dropping it. But once relegated to the background.. how long before YaST is rewritten using GTK? How long before the KDE development that SUSE was famous for stops..etc..etc..etc.
I bet you turn your monitor to the side at night so the secret agents can't watch you sleep. Lol.
Good one.. good one. I'll bet you've worked at SUSE and see how things go? Right? Yes? You have? And I'm sure you've spend years in the corp. world and in the tech industry so you know EVERYTHING there is to know about how software dev. is planned out and how things work? Right? I'm sure you have lots of friends who still work at SUSE? Right? Yes? Well, Gomer.. I do. And I've watched how things go in the commercial world for years. So it's not a " tinhat, the sky is falling" comment when I say that once SUSE isn't paying the dev guys and putting energy into KDE that it will suffer. KDE under Redhat sucks ass and so could it under SUSE if they put no effort into it. I'm not going to trade barbs with you about who does what at night and who is retarded or not. Because you have nothing of worth to say and have resorted to name calling and innuendo.
I'm taking a wait and see stance. If they drop KDE then they lose me
as a desktop customer for my work machines. I don't install X/KDE or any other UI's on my servers, so that's not an issue.. no one should need a bloody UI to admin a Linux/UNIX box.. just my opinion. As for my home machines I could care less about what UI SUSE uses these days.. I've been using a Powerbook at home and will have an X86 PowerMac when they are released. *shrug*
They are more expensive than an SGI. Guess which one I'd pick?
Oh step off. Do not spread "Macs are more expensive anything" FUD. Moron. A business class Dell with the same specs as the Powerbook is within $100 of each other. You just lost more credibility. And if you'd pick an SGI then you're a bigger idiot as they've just been delisted and will probably be bought in the next year or go out of business.
But please don't take our disdain for SUSE switching to Gnome on their
commerical distros as low IQ.. it's called debate and voicing ones opinion... we are able to do that.. right?
No.
Ah. You must be one of those Neo-Con's.. or simply a rube.
And no.. YOUR uptime owns NO one. ;)
You don't know my uptime.
I guess you just didn't trim your reply and it was an uptime from someone in this thread. *shrug* Whatever.
I think my desktop stacks up and surpasses.

Didn't install that Kernel update did you?
Didn't need to. This machine sits behind a FreeBSD box with a very restrictive ipfw rule set that also runs OpenVPN. :) -- Atheism is a non-prophet organization.
