When you try it, I encourage doing two things:

Quite a few of the RH dev staff are also KDE developers, you'll find a significant amount of support for keeping the KDE version up to date now.  You'll also find that it works well with XFCE - Alan Cox, who runs RH on many of his development systems, uses and recommends it highly ... So do I!
