Moritz Moeller - Her writes "As most of you desktop users already know, the KDE Project recently released KDE 3.1beta2, which will be the final development release before KDE 3.1. The good news is, KDE 3.1 is scheduled for release in just a few weeks. The following page gives a nice overview about what is coming with many screenshots. It will certainly be the best KDE ever."

    Better than the future releases? Woah, I must download that now.

    So does hitting ctrl-alt-backspace automatically press the "Submit" button in your web browser?

    Stick to Commodore 64, they haven't changed features in years, and are an exceedingly tight code-base. (fits in less than 64K,not meg, not gig, but K)

    I wonder who at M$ was the one who decided to buy an ad for this story. Ah well, the sweet irony of clicking on an M$ ad in a KDE story thus generating additional revenue for /. :-).

  5. KDE Switch Campaign? by EugeneK · · Score: 5, Funny
    Apparently this is a new KDE marketing campaign about a *REAL* Gnome user who switched. They seem to have taken it down; luckily I saved a copy!!

    (At a technical institute I visited, there was a very formal hierarchy: students enrolled as Computer Engineering or EE, flunked 1st semester and switched to Computer Science or SE, and then became IT after flunking again).


    Kudos to this school for teaching its students the essential skills of the software industry: thinking you're smarter than everyone else, not interacting well with other people, and resolutely explaining technical minutia whenevery a situation is threatening.

    I've been wanting another degree - where do I enroll?

    KDE 3.2 will also feature the ability to use Vim as the mail composer

    But will EMACS 21.3 feature the ability to use KDE as the window manager?
