long time, and the obvious, see and think:
* What distribution officially uses "TDE" as main desktop.?
* What derived distribution, use "TDE" as main desktop.?
* Where is a website that oficialize the number of users who use "TDE"
(non-advanced)?
The differences between TDE and KDE are of two types, surface and
backgorund.
In surface, the only thing user see is an obvious and inefficient
appereance like Windows
Real changes in background are not highlighted to ommon user (new
software support etc.)
TDE has no real differences, not like Razorqt, or LXDE, where you
notice things like good performance and simplicity,
In TDE avanced users like me, expected that well know bugs like
missing quanta updates, dialup simplicity (kpp are a pain), konqueror
crash on flash sites, or support on kwallet for subversion >= 1.6 or
support for kwallet for git, the most wanted are dialog open/save
integration with GTK and FLTK.. but , in 4 releases of TDE only windo
like features was made!
Then I suggest you use the desktop environments that you mentioned, as
they are apparently a better fit for your needs. Open source is all about
choice--that not only includes user choice in software selection, but also
developer choice whereby hackers can improve software in ways that they
need for their particular application(s).
Oh, and enough with the Windows bashing already. :-) Like any other
system (including various Linux DEs and OS X), Windows has its strengths
and its flaws. There is no reason we need to succumb to NIH syndrome and
ignore good ideas from other systems.
