And that (IMHO) would be a very foolish step (again, IMHO) KDE 3.0 - despite what people says that it's an actual small change - is rather a pretty big change. The QT version has been changed, the BiDi algoritm has not been tested by lots of people yet - and thats only part of the problem... Another example - Konqueror has been improved. A lot. It is to me as fast as Opera browser can be - a really fast browser, but once those improvments are done - new bugs came in (fact is - that table rendering was totally busted until yesterday - and I'm not talking about a rare condition - I'm talking about Konqueror startup page!)... So lots of things of KDE were enhanced (well, everyone at the kde team knows - you release the leash - and within a week you got 20 new features, and 5 breakages - and thats on a slow week! wait till you see what they did with kdevelop!) - and as new things comes - new bugs are also appeared - so I would definately won't suggest people to straightly jump into KDE-3.0 only situation - my suggestion would be to have both KDE-3 and KDE-2.2.2 (you can have them both with a simple 3 line script). So as for your formatting XP - allow me to suggest to you - stay with your XP for now - and only when you see that all your needs can be fulfilled with Linux - then switch to Linux, and even then - I suggest you leave your XP there - as we say - "just in case" ;) [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
