Installing KDE and Removing Ubuntu (Don't want Kubuntu)

There's quite a big difference between default KDE and Kubuntu Bruce.
Kubuntu has lots of alterations, extras, and omissions.

Perhaps starting with a server install then installing KDE on top of it
would suite your needs? I'm not sure what's installed by default on Ubuntu
server though... just minimal I would think. If you know enough to know the
difference between Kubuntu and default KDE I'll assume you'll be fairly
comfortable at the CLI so installing a DE from a server install would be no
problem.

This might be heresy, but actually, if you are that comfortable another
distro might suite your needs. There are lots of distros that use clean KDE.
Arch would be one possibility if you're fairly familiar with Linux.
