I hear BMW is releasing the 2009 model of the X5...but they haven't quite got everytihng done... so don't bother your little head about the fact that the transmission doesn't have a reverse gear, and engine hood, trunk-lid, doors, and seat-belts are missing, because everything that IS on the car works properly... those other pesky little things, they're going to take care of in the 2009 1/2 model.
But Aaron, instead of trying to be funny, why don't you tell us what it is that you're missing.
Since you're making similies with reverse gears and seat belts in cars, you must be missing some fairly substantial core functionality
So what is it?
As far as I can see, the core stuff is all in place, and what's missing is the niceties.
Niceties? Core stuff?
XFCE4 has core stuff.
Rip out KDE4 and reinstall KDE3.5.9 and you will have before you a complete demonstration of all the things missing from KDE4.
Or better still, run KDE3 and 4 together on the one machine. Subscribe to the KDE 4.1 beta repo and keep your system updated regularly. Try KDE4 whenever you don't have a huge amount of critical work on, and if you find a bug, report it. Both 3.x and 4.x can happily co-exist, which is what I do. 11.0 lets you do this, checking frequently to see the many improvements 4.1 has over time. Eventually, I'll stop logging into 3.x since 4.x will be so good that nothing is missing. Honestly, this is a storm in a teacup - with openSUSE people have a choice.
