I never stated that you said anything about "forced". Neither did I refer to the OP's comment on KDE4 forcing him to learn new things. You jumped some levels in the thread. I only replied to your comment regarding Linus Torvalds and pointed out that if anyone was forced to use KDE 4.0, he would agree on it not being usable compared to KDE 3.5.
Ok, now I am thoroughly corn-fused. Duh...... Anyway, I THINK I see your point now.
I claimed opensuse did not force anyone to use KDE 4.0 and not even 4.1. David claimed that eight months ago 4.0 was, which is what I do not agree with.
Yeah, I see that as well, however, there was the conception that 4 was being pushed over 3(and it was). But no-one was forcing anyone to use anything. So long as 11.0/3.5.x works, I will stick with it. However, I do get tired of hearing how great KDE4 is and for me it's the total opposite. However, I have yet to install 4.2, so when I have some time(maybe next year at this rate) I will re-install 11.1 and update to 4.2. I don't demand a lot from my desktop, but the way KDE4 works is very alien to what I am used to(and I've used so many OS/Desktops like OS/2 and all the others).
The KDE team should have look at the OS/2 WPS for ideas. It was doing some incredible things 17 years ago, that I have not seen elsewhere. -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
