Intrepid is what I am interested in, not KDE4.  I was told that Intrepid 
is far improved in their 64 bit technology.  That is where I am going; 
that is what I would like to understand.  I will have to learn KDE4 
eventually anyway, because I prefer KDE over Gnome (another great 
Desktop). 

Eventually they work things out so people rave about what they complain 
about now.  From Feisty to Gutsy, I grumbled a bit.  From Gutsy to 
Hardy, I grumbled a bit, but after a while I loved the change.  I expect 
that will happen in KDE 4 too. 

The developers are a lot smarter than me.  They have a plan for change.  
I have noticed that after I learn a new situation, I pretty much stop 
comparing it with the former version.  Usually the changes are better 
and the features I give up are still available, just in a little 
different way.  Shoot, I get all this stuff free; I can't complain about 
anything.  If asked, I will give an opinion, but if not asked, I will 
just use the new free stuff until I know how it works.  Then I will make 
a decision of whether to use it or not.  But I will never complain.  
It's free.  Someone is breaking their back to make it better, and for a 
nothing like me.  I love them.
