Jim Lynch: Off the Top of My Head…

SJVN notes that somebody is trying to keep KDE 3.5 alive. I’m not a KDE guy, I usually use GNOME. But I like the idea of keeping KDE 3.5 viable, at least for a while.
I love it. KDE 3.x, which has always remained my favorite Linux desktop interface, is making a come back. A tiny [...]

KDE 3 or KDE 4?

eWEEK has reviews of KDE 3.3 and Gnome 2.8.
I haven’t had time to play with KDE 3.3 but I think I’ll make some after reading eWEEK’s take on it. I always prefer Gnome for daily desktop use but there’s no doubt that KDE is quite polished and offers a lot as well.
