Oh. So you criticise something you do not even inform yourself about? 
Activities are at the heart of KDE4.

Sorry, my fault - this whole discussion is pointless if you just claim things 
without gathering some info beforehand. Please read-up on activities and you 
might notice why your arguments fall short.

And no, I'm not going to do the work for you since if I criticise an app I do 
read-up on it beforehand and nobody is going to do it for me either.

Where did I state that KDE4 is great? I just disagreed on the opposite when it 
is put in such a general statement. Maybe that helps you recognise how you 
read things into the text.

Indeed. See above.
