KDE4
pclinuxos is pretty nifty, but I need more. Centos seems pretty complete but is has never been geared to the desktop. I was thinking maybe Open Solaris or PCBSD, except the BSDs don't appear to me to be as well along as the Linux Kernel and distros. The concern with Open Solaris is how long will it remain available? I don't think the differences between RPM and DEB are all that significant. I would like to be able to have 3 or 4 virtual machines up at the same time, and 32 bit systems don't recognize enough ram to do this. I haven't had the best of luck with PAE kernels under pclinuxos. It tends to corrupt my boot sector, which locks me out of everything, and I don't have that worked out yet. Subjectively, Ubuntu and Mint are just annoying. That leaves Debian(mild pita), Slackware(major pita), or maybe Suse(boring) absent anything better. And I would like something as or more suitable. Maybe Stormos, if it ever gets out of Beta?
