Posted September 15, 200816 yr *my comment* some dorks think linux is only Gnome... that looks kinda ugly.. well here is news for you, Kde 4.1 is out and it looks good, and at this point, anything is better than vista! http://www.efytimes.com/efytimes/fcreative.asp?edid=27844 KDE 4.1 has some of those cool features that make Vista and Mac look like kids! This is going to give a hard time to any Vista or Mac. KDE brings to GNU/Linux the cool and bling factor with a complete arsenal of applications and tools with which you can conquer even Mars. While Windows enjoys the rich ecosystem where third-party players sell applications at a heavy price for the platform, in the world of Linux, everything is being created by a huge community which may outnumber the entire workforce of Microsoft. And all these applications and tools in Linux are available for free (free in terms of cost as well as freedom to modify it the way you want). Several years ago, people used to complain that Linux was not much user-friendly. But today they find using Linux to be as simple as taking a walk in a park. For a non-Linux user, KDE or GNOME is a desktop environment which he actually uses to interact with programs. In layman's terms, for example, XP's desktop environment is different from that of Vista or Mac. This desktop environment typically consists of icons, windows, toolbars, folders, wallpapers and desktop widgets. In addition, it also includes full set of applications like movie player, Internet browsing, music player, word processors and many more. read rest of article with SCREENSHOTS at link provided http://www.efytimes.com/efytimes/fcreative.asp?edid=27844
