Re: Elementary OS is the best Linux Desktop period.

"KDE is...fine, if you have a Core i7 with 4-8 gigs of RAM, and even then, it's a sausage approach to UX design, throw everything in there!"

KDE4 runs just fine on any hardware from the last few years. My main laptop is an i3 with 4gb and intel graphics. Hardly, state of the art but it runs Debian Wheezy KDE like a dream. I've got other machines of far less spec that run reasonably well to. As for KDE throwing everything in there? Thats one of the reasons I like it and will continue to use, what for me is the best desktop environment out there.

Re: heres an idea

Linus Torvalds may have designed the Linux kernel but hes just one of us when it comes to liking or disliking a UI. The review you post of his opinion on KDE is far from the truth as it pronounces only his criticisms of KDE and none of his positive feedback.The thing with KDE, is that it doesn't treat its users like infants who can't be trusted with control of their own computers. Linus has switched back to it, so the KDE developers must be doing something right...
