OT desktops

[Richard R. Sivernell]

List

  Just some observation on 2 desktops KDE 3.1 & xfce 3.18.x.  I bought two new
hard drives a week or so back when CompUSA had a special till they are gone, 2
250 gig hard drive @$99 each. 7200 rpms. Well this week I reinstalled Suse 9.0 on
them and used kde to just setup things til I got going. What a pig it is. My
machine is a P III 533 mHz Coppermine with 750+ meg of memory, with KDE you would
have thought it only had 64K. I waited waited, waited, sometimes the stuff never
seemed to start. So quickly I got xfce on, run lickty split, life is good again.

I would like all of you to feel a little sorry for here. I took a new contract job
with Pricewaterhouse 2 weeks ago. That not the problem, they love M$ sludge the XP
kind, YUK. I miss having severl different desktops, I keep going to the bootom to
go to a new desktop and nothing there. It get crowded on XP. Working on back-end
of Lotus Notes, go figure< crying time over>

cheers
