David is a pretty astute user. If you can't handle him how do you ever expect this version of KDE to survive in the real world?
Yes, But I did misspeak, the setting that is now more difficult to find than ever is the old: Appearance Themes -> Style -> Effects -> Menu drop shadow And... I'm but a mere 43, not grumpy and have no veranda (It's called a porch in Texas), but I do lament the days gone by when the complete focus of the KDE team was on (1) logical ease of use, accomplished in (2) the least number of mouse clicks or keystokes possible. And, yes, I do feel that focus has been completely lost on the current generation of kde developers. But no, I don't dream of days gone by, I am a fully committed kde4 supporter and user. (138 bug reports worth IIRC). I like the desktop, but I am opinionated, and I am of the firm opinion that the readiness of KDE4 was grossly misrepresented starting in June '08, and that is it just now reaching an honest '.04' first release state. I also hold a great many other opinions, as many good as bad, but it is just determined by the way an issue hits me as to the one you will get. If you haven't figured it out by now, I don't sugar-coat anything;-) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
