I have been totally disappointed with KDE4.  It looks way too much
like Vista.  The colors, icons, and schemes are so much different from
v3.x to make it a bad experience IMHO.

Which makes no sense to me.  I for one would have prefered a KDE3
liveCD.  I installed both KDE 3 and 4 on my E1200 Celeron.  I have
played with v4 a little, but I keep dropping back to v3.x.  And, on my
laptops I don't even bother with v4.  It's way too slow for a P3/500.
Which makes no sense because they claim that KDE4 uses less RAM and is
faster than KDE3, but that hasn't been my experience.
