Yes. As far as I'm concerned KDE-4 is still in testing. No amount of |
| 11 |
protestation of its readiness for the real world will persuade me to adopt |
| 12 |
it wholeheartedly until I'm happy with it. So far, I'm not, and I don't |
| 13 |
want to pollute my working KDE-3 system with loads of stuff I'll have |
| 14 |
difficulty removing. |

It's nothing of the sort. It's a conscious, deliberate decision. |

This is just pointless semantics. I select the OS I want to run at grub |
| 26 |
time, the same as anyone else. Nothing I've said in this thread is |
| 27 |
inconsistent with what you're saying, so let's just leave it at that, shall |
| 28 |
we? |
