I'm one of those odd birds that actually enjoys the look and feel of |
| 17 |
traditional UNIX desktops (CDE/Motif/OpenLook/Athena/etc.). Most people |
| 18 |
cringe at it, I know, but I like it and won't accept anything else. |

On KDE 3, it was possible to setup an extremely convincing and |
| 21 |
attractive (to people like me) imitation of CDE. Attempting to do this |
| 22 |
on KDE 4 falls far short. |
