So I have been an Ubuntu user since Breezy Badger and I have always used Gnome. I tried KDE 3.5 with an openSUSE install and didnt quite like it. Speed, functioality, and stability where not that of GNOME.

I then tried KDE 4 when it first came out and foud it to be worse, better looking yes, but not all there, along with being buggy and slow.

These were all on two custom PCs.

Today I tried Kubuntu 9.04 64bit Alpha3 with KDE 4.2; along with the new FS ext4.

Tbis was done on a System76 Pangoline Performace.


I have to say I LOVE it, its fast, stable. looks great. and the performace increase with ext4 is amazing!

Givin there were some hang ups due to it being on an Alpa release of Ubuntu, but come April whe the final comes out I will be putting KDE as my primary DE. Kudos to the KDE guys!
