There was a lot of hype during release of KDE 4.x but it had a lot of bugs and users kept switching KDE 3.x <--> KDE 4.x.
There are a lot of improvement in KDE 4.2 Beta 2 and a lot of users are using it. KDE 4.2 will be released on January 12, 2009. ( Release Schedule ).

It would be nice to see how many of us are using KDE 4.x too.

I really liked it and I would still be using it were it not for the bugs that crashed my system. So I switched to KDE3.x for the time being. I really want to get back to KDE4 soon, I just don't know when. Definitely sometime between the releases of KDE4.2 and Kubuntu9.04. I guess I'll wait until then to vote. __________________ Using Linux since June 2007 Distros: (k)ubuntu 8.04 KDE 3 Edition SPECS: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+, 2 GB DDR2, GeForce 6100 When your whole life is on one computer, servers and all, choose stability over anything else.
