KDE 3.0.1 is out

you're right about its being untight code that requires more hardware 
than it ought to. but in constant use of kde on multiple machines 
here since 1.0, except for very early alphas i have *never* had it 
blow up on me. i do compile it myself, and i do pay attention to my 
hardware, and i suppose both of these might enter into it. but of the 
various complaints against it -- and there certainly are some -- 
instability has never been one around here.
