Goodbye KDE, Hello XFCE

“This past weekend I uninstalled KDE4 from my Desktop. When I
first started playing around with Linux, my first desktop was KDE
1.something. Even though it didn’t have the polish of Windows, I
could see that it had a lot of potential. It was more than enough
for brief excursions into Linux. I think back then I was running
Redhat 7.something. I have used KDE on Solaris (at work), Mandrake,
Fedora, and for the past 4 years, Gentoo.

“About a year before the release of Vista I became so disgusted
with Windows that I made the decision to switch completely to Linux
and have never regretted the decision. My wife and son had no
problem making the transition from Windows to Linux thanks in no
small part to KDE. With KDE 3.5, I was in Desktop heaven. I had
power and flexibility that Windows users cannot even imagine.”
