Don't be timid. We're all learning here. Some of us are on a steeper
learning curve than others, but if you ever quit learning you might as well
be dead.

Anyway...
Since some of my preferred applications are KDE, I thought I'd switch
completely to Kubuntu and give it a good try. It's going to be hard to stick
it out for even one day. Konqueror seems so slow to me. Maybe I'm doing
something wrong,  but if it doesn't improve soon I'm going back to Gnome. I
agree that it seems intuitive and clean. Maybe I'll switch to Xubuntu first,
though.
