KDE 4.2
I’ve been a Gnome user ever I started using Linux a little over 2 years ago.
Sure I’ve flirted with other WM and DE but Gnome always stayed my favorite.
When KDE 4 came out it looked promising but I was not impressed with it at all.
It was slow, had lots of bugs and not much going for it really besides it’s looks.
KDE 4.1 was more of the same, still not impressed.
That all changed when version 4.2 came out a little while ago.
I now use KDE 4.2 and haven’t looked back.
Why? Keep reading.
I finally moved to Arch
I have been bored with Ubuntu since Hardy.
A lot of people were claiming Arch Linux was THE distro for people wanting more control and speed.
I had nothing to do yesterday so I downloaded the iso (around 300mb) and installed it.
I’m back :p
I have had some computer issues that kept me from posting the last week or so.
I needed to move my monitor and when I plugged it back in it died on me.
My laptop is in the shop (again) and I didn’t feel like posting here using my Asus Eeepc (to small for writing posts).
Either way, I’ll be posting again tomorrow.
If you have any subject (linux related) you would like to see me make a post about, post a comment here and I’ll might just do it.
(for people interested on seeing my new computer setup, keep reading)
