Kde 3.1 questions

[Matthew Carpenter]

I understand what you are saying, but Tim has a point.  It's no mystery that I'm pretty happy with KDE for most things.  It is bloated, but I'm into bloat-balancing.  I like the pretty's, the things which presidents, managers and directors love to tinker with which make them try and stick with something.  I like KDE because it helps me get my work done faster (so long as I have a machine that can keep up).  I agree that KDE can cripple CPU's and memory-configs which would be great on a Linux server... but not Win2k or XP.  KDE is not for everyone but they definitely are for many.  

That said, one thing I'm intrigued about is the upcoming enhancements paid for by the German government.  Apparently KDE 3.1 or 3.2 is supposed to have an Outlook-like PIM and some back-end stuff.

You're looking for a great tool and I understand that... I'm looking for a Windows Killer.  KDE so far seems to be the closest thing for Linux at this point.  <flame-guard-up>
