All,
Given what has been happening lately with respect to KDE4, and the media incorrectly attempting to portray us as directly competing with KDE4, and there only on reliability and direct feature-set parity, I have a challenge for you:
Write a few sentences stating what you like about TDE most. Leave KDE4 and other desktop environments completely out of the picture (no direct comparisons), and focus on the strengths of this particular desktop environment. Mentioning the general theme of your work (i.e. engineering, software development, sales, etc.) isn't a bad idea either; this would help us gather some demographics on who uses TDE vs who uses other desktops.
The thing I like the most in Trinity is that it is both easy to use and easily configurable: for example I have custom shortcuts that enable me to use some key combinations I learnt in other DEs (for example, Xfce and Compiz's Ctrl-Alt-Left/Right to change virtual desktops). It enables me to use almost the same shortcuts with Trinity, KDE4 and Xfce. Also, I like the fact that the applications are deeply integrated and behave the same. I also enjoy the great reactivity of Trinity, but anyway my hardware is powerful enough to make anything reactive (SSD, 6G RAM). For the work part, I'm a graduate student in theoretical CS (4th year of university; in France the equivalent of the Bachelor's, which we call Licence, takes 3 years to obtain).
I am also interested in the other side of the coin: What do you hate about TDE the most? If other people agree the results could become the basis of some new enhancement requests, helping to make TDE better overall.
-The themes provided by default. Everyone has their tastes, and mine don't like any KDE3/Trinity's included Qt3 style/icon theme. Now, with Trinity I use Polyester (that I compiled from the kde-look tarballs) and the Crystal Project icons, with a 100% transparent panel. I like Domino too. -Konqueror 3.5.13, which is the only navigator which integrates well to Trinity, doesn't support modern CSS.
Send in your responses to this list. If we like something you say, it may be featured on the website sometime soon!
