But it seems to me KDE under both Fedora and Ubuntu are not as good as Gnome. Just my personal experience. Many power users like to use KDE. My usage pattern under Linux/Gnome is pretty simple. I am mainly use Firefox for web and email (Gmail and Yahoo email) and then testing some USB stuff like PICkit 2 and PICDEM FS USB. Under FreeBSD 7 and NetBSD 4, I actually use KDE 3.5. I have some limited success of using PICkit 2 under FreeBSD but I am still struggling to get PICkit 2 work under NetBSD. Under both OS, I need to rebuilding the kernel.
