Oh come on! Please, do not
answer things like that. There are so many different people
on Earth and we all have so many different choices & reasons for doing things or not
doing
them.
I tried KDE4 for a few weeks, maybe 2 months. And it was just too bad for my needs.
Before using it, I thought about somethings like "KDE4 must be KDE3 with more glossy
graphics rendering and *upgraded packages*", and I also thought I could disable
almost of
the graphics stuff, but, no. KDE4 missis some basic options KDE3 had, and KDE3 had them
for good reasons (I just think about alt-f5 shortcut (show all windows list) that is no
more available in KDE4 *if* you don't own powerful 3D graphics card).
Then, I found Trinity, installed it and was sooooooooooooo happy! I kept some KDE4 apps
for a while (kpdf, amarok2, etc.) but it was kind of a mess. So I finally removed all of
them and get back to my beloved "KDE3 desktop". Just what I wanted while
upgrading to
Debian Squeeze.
BTW, re-thank you so much for doing Trinity!
