I have looked at all those, in addition to KDE 4 and Gnome. None appeals to me. Each has something that I strongly dislike or does not have something that I like and use a lot. I would love to be able to upgrade to Squeeze if new(er) hardware dictates, but keep KDE 3.5. But I am not even almost tempted to go over to the dark side! I am, however, very sad that KDE 3.5, which I regard as the pinnacle of DE's, is being laid to rest.

Hi Dotan, > This is what I'd like to know! It is very subjective, but KDE 3 was > very intuitive in some aspects. Tell me what is not intuitive in KDE > 4.4 and I will file the bugs. Thanks, this is an important one! I > agree that many things are _not_ intuitive. The thing I miss most in KDE4 is: pausing the cursor over a music file in Konq (file manager, icon view) and hearing the contents. This was such an awesome feature that Microsoft has copied it for Windows 7; and it's disappeared from Konq/Dolphin. I asked about it once, and got <shrug> back. Otherwise, I'm a happy KDE4.4 user (on a number of distros).
