I have to admit I am not a lover of KDE so that may be the one thing that stops me using it much.
You are not forced to use KDE, even to install it. I'm also not in love with KDE(as far as I can remember 12 years ago I preferred Gnome over KDE(I admit that was very subjective preference since I was 13 year old child), and now I prefer xfce), but still I'm here. Unfortunately it is impossible to get rid of KDE: dependencies+no alternatives(kdevelop for instance), etc.

I *can't* run KDE on this little eeepc (512M RAM). It just sputters and gags - and writes Megs of configuration and setup files all over my weenie "hard drive."
I use XFCE (except when I'm feeling particularly spartan and fire up fvwm instead). I still use several of the KDE apps, though...
KDE just isn't repectful of my limited disc space and 800x480 screen. Their big blank dialogs seem designed to try to take up all the space on much larger screens. Phooey!
Stupid question, and slightly off topic, but in what section of LQ will the interview be posted? I'm probably more excited about this than should be. LOL

I am also very much looking forward to PV's interview!
