I didn't mean to say *you* said something to that amount.  *I* said that
myself, based on the experience of co-workers (and some by seeing it
myself when sitting alongside with them at their desks).

E.g. (re)painting errors in kde4's konqueror (dunno whether it's a bug
of konqueror proper, of khtml [or its successor] or qt4 [but kate
doesn't seem to have similar bugs, according to the co-worker who has
those experiences).  If you experience them, part of the web page is not
seen, you see the screen background instead.

And it seems to be a slower experience in general, compared to kde3.

As long as that is not resolved (upstream, I guess), I'd be happy to
have a choice to stay with kde3 instead of upgrading.

cmake :(

Another thing I just couldn't stop griping about once I start.
