Your fascination with them is unjustified. It is like a person, who likes to knit, would be fascinated by a criminal, who, say, strangle people by a cord.

it's more like if you like to knit, and is fascinated by someone who knits mind-controlling socks and gets millions of people to wear them on a day-by-day basis without them noticing it.

Comment XFCE vs KDE experience (Score 1) 368

I use KDE 4.3 on my fancy new desktop computer, though only since 1-2 months now. I have already been content with 4.2, but xfce just offers all the features i need and has better response times. I switched (back) to kde because i wanted to play a round a bit and see what was new, and some stuff is really cool :). I don't use my desktop for productive stuff, i have my (significantly weaker) laptop for that (which runs xfce). My main problem at the moment is that - probably since i mix apps from different DE - hotkeys are very different from application to application (why the heck doesn't dolphin create new folders with ctrl+n ? all other file managers i know do)

KDE started becoming good again roughly with KDE 4.3. Try 4.4, you will probably like it! I'm just wondering why kde doesn't manage to produce a proper looking default theme.... Also try xfce! its really great if you just want a clean and fast desktop environment with just the right set of features! I would prefer it over gnome any time!
