What To Expect In KDE 4.1

Posted by timothy on from the plenty-of-goodness dept.

andrewmin writes "Recently, Gnome's been gaining a lot of ground on its KDE counterpart in the desktop environment wars. The KDE developers were hoping to change this with KDE 4, the new radical release of KDE, but it was not to be. KDE 4.0 was buggy and unstable, leaving everyone except the hard-core KDE lovers. Mainly, this was because it just didn't work most of the time. However, the developers were not without hope. They promised that KDE 4.1 would be more stable and fix all the holes and problems with KDE 4.0. That time is coming soon: in just four days, K Desktop Environment 4.1 will be released to the Linux masses." A release candidate for 4.1 came out just over a week ago, with binaries available "for some Linux distributions, and Mac OS X and Windows."

    I for one blame twitter. He is single-handedly responsible for the failures of Free Software, not to mention AIDS and the Holocaust.

      That's interesting, considering that you are twitter.

      P.S. Capital I's look good on you. You should do that more.

    Fact: Hitler didn't really exist, he was actually a twitter sockpuppet.
