Strictly speaking, that is not true. Choosing KDE would be very
similar to the Kubuntu experience, but it is not exact. Your default
programs (of the freedesktop-compatible variety) will be the Gnome and
GTK programs, such as Open Office and Firefox. The menus will be
slightly different than the Kubuntu menus as well.

Instead of thinking in terms of Kubuntu vs Ubuntu, think in terms of
KDE vs Gnome. Kubuntu uses KDE as default, but can also use Gnome.
