Five Years of KDE 401
Jacek Fedorynski writes: "Looks like KDE is five years old. Five years seems like a lot of time but just look how much they've achieved in this time." I think the hard part is just beginning - KDE has got all the basics down, and now they have to resist adding too much more crap.
Five Years? (Score:3, Funny)
It feels a lot longer to me.
It must be the dog years phenomena, where 5 years = 30 dog years.
somehow, that feels alot closer to the truth.

From Matthius' original newsgroup post:
"..The idea is to create a GUI for an ENDUSER. Somebody who wants to browse the web with Linux, write some letters and play some nice games.
I really believed that is even yet possible with Linux until I configured my girlfriend's box.
Yes indeed, I would like to thank Matthius and the rest of the KDE team for their enormous contributions to the future of Open Source. But most of all, I'd like to thank the nameless girlfriend who wasn't afraid to complain! (-:

This guy's girlfriend has a configurable box? Today blonde and trim, tomorrow dark and bushy. Is there no end to these open source guy's talents???
