Not a KDE4 fan. It just doesn't fit my workflow, is sluggish, and basic things are too hard to accomplish. Anyway, as a host OS goes, I think I found my ultimate favourite - FreeBSD. Rock solid system, super easy to setup, fantastic documentation, the ports system is great and couldn't be easier to use. And unlike Linux, they don't re-implement most existing technology every couple of months. The FreeBSD guys are way more consistent, and rather improve and evolve the existing technologies, which gives fantastic backwards compatibility. eg: How many sound servers has Linux already had? How many file systems? How many directory layouts? How many distros exist? All slightly different to the next. I have a commercial mail server running on a separate FreeBSD 9.1 system. The mail server software was a binary release that was compiled for FreeBSD 8, years ago. The installation, documentation and binaries are still compatible with FreeBSD 9.1 Anyway, enough about my OS choices.
