Ok, I downloaded and installed KDE 4.2 on 8.10. I was impressed with the bells and whistles, but was not converted. For one KOffice did not work (I guess it is a distribution issue, but did not want to spend time on this. Second, the wireless did not work, so I had no connectivity (it was working with KDE4.0). So, I guess I will stick with Gnome until 9.04, at which time I will reconsider.
Fedora, SuSE and othe distributions are great, so I hear, but we cannnot move to them in the lab. Too much of a hassle and compatability with other Technion computers. This is not to say that we will discorage users from installing kubuntu, fedora, suse, etc.
