You may be right Jonas, I have had difficulties with Dragon too, but one thing 
that has changed in my choices over the past 3 years since using Linux, is 
hearing from the experts to give the Kubuntu KDE choices a chance.

I since have replaced Firefox with Konqueror, Thunderbird with Kmail, and with 
my change to Intrepid, Dragon Player, I have found some problems, but some 
features you only find by having two of the other players.  I installed 
Kaffeine, a very stable player for a while, but it indicated similar problems 
as Dragon, so I think much of the problem is still to be worked out within KDE 
and perhaps not Dragon.

i have gotten to the point where I want to support all the efforts of the 
Kubuntu team.  In my heart I know that they are always trying to make our 
operating system better, and they do it so selflessly.  I believe they need us 
to use their creations to perfect them and meet their dreams.  I want to share 
in that experience.  I am not smart enough to do the mental investment, but I 
am able to point out bugs that help them solve problems.  For now, that is all 
I can contribute.  I still have Firefox on my computer; it has capabilities or 
design features I prefer, but I use Konqueror to support the team and use 
Firefox only as a backup.  I truly am not qualified to give advice, but my 
opinion is something I can give.  Kubuntu KDE is a kindness and gift to 
everyone.  I believe those of us who benefit from it's use should help and 
support them every way we are able.

This comment is not directed at you Jonas, you are a great supporter of 
Kubuntu, and I think KDE, it is just thoughts that come to mind when I read 
the post.  In my opinion, you Jonas are one of the best parts of the List.
