Hi everyone,
Here is a KNOPPIX 3.8 (circa 2005) livecd with KDE 3.3.2 that I wanted to post here, just for fun. It is possibly my first linux cd I had at home.
Here is the link: http://www.filefactory.com/file/5qzedtzxfte3/knoppix.iso
It might not work correctly on your PC, so consider using a VM if you want to try it.
Enjoy! -Alexandre

I still have some Corel Linux cd's aprox 1999-2000, based on Debian (slink/Potato) it used KDE, my first use of KDE for my business. Corel 'hacked' the control panel..samba just worked..a first for me, they also contributed to Wine dev to support their office suite.
I also have some Wordperfect Office cd's ..wine version. Corel tried to make WP Office work with wine...almost worked :-)

See you and raise you fifty: I still have a drive with Caldera 1.2 and KDE 1.0 on it.
Kept it because it was what I used in writing this: http://www.amazon.com/Practical-KDE-Dennis-E-Powell/dp/078972216X
(And I see that you can get a copy for as little as 68 cents -- and free shipping if you're a college student!)

My thought on the Caldera iso's, I have some, is that it is a Linux license that SCO was denying existed.
Could be wrong ;-) poor memory.

Just so. I have a couple boxes of Caldera CDs -- going back to when a non-free desktop called "Looking Glass" was the default -- and delighted in it when Darl McBride and his happy band of raiders said that the Linux that their company distributed was illegal. It was even funnier that after SCalderaO was sending letters to Linux users demanding payment there was still Linux available for free download on the SCO website.
No matter the merits -- and I believe they had none -- they deserved to lose on grounds of stupidity. Last I heard, some lawyer discovered a dollar of SCO money not already in lawyers' hands and filed to reopen the lawsuit(s).

Fun writing? Ha! I signed the contract to write the book at the end of June 1999 -- and the deadline for the completed 250,000-word, illustrated book was the end of July 1999. And I hit the deadline. Much coffee consumed that month.
(I'd rather do it that way, though, than take a year or two to write a book -- because I cannot in a year make a book 12 times as good as one made in a month. And the books I've written before and since then each took a month to write, though some took longer than that to research.)
