Goddamn it, there are problems in KDE in Intrepid so bad as for it to
be laughable? Why wasn't I told? Damn computer been no use since I
upgraded to Jaunty and is because of the laughable KDE4
implementation?

Oh, wait. My computer is fine. Kubuntu installed? Check. is Intrepid?
Check. Is broken? Negative. Is causing any issues? Negative. Is
causing any issues for the non-expert computer users I've installed it
for? Negative. Has it been described by partner of one of said
non-expert users as far better than the Vista laptop her employers
have foisted upon her? Check. Has she asked for dual-boot at my next
opportunity? Check.

I must be in an alternative universe...
