As a very long time Red Hat fan, Fedora just sucked the wind out of me
as I spent more time maintaining a "bleeding edge" platform that blew up
routinely with an over night upgrade. I really had some important stuff
to do, and none was getting done patching up overnight problems. But, if
you just want bleeding edge on the desktop and enjoy that kinda thing,
it's the place to be for an experienced user. It's murder on a newbie
though. So, I finally switched to Kubuntu as I didn't want to be forced
into KDE4 and am perfectly happy with KDE3. I'm finally getting devel
stuff done, and that is what I want to do with my computer. Use it as a
useful tool. I agree that KDE has to grow and evolve. No question about
it. I just happen to like the fact that Kubuntu remains stable for a
much longer period of time than a distro like Fedora. I also have CentOS
on another partition, but since I need Sun's JDK instead of openjdk,
Kubuntu wins hands down for native support. My two cents. And yes, once
KDE4 settles down and matures, I'll use it. Ric
