... And I adapted, but it took me well over a hundred hours of work,
scripting up solutions for broken stuff, etc, before I was there. And
that 100 hours doesn't even include the "normal and expected" switching
time...
There's a lot of users that simply don't have that time, or prefer to
spend it elsewhere if they do, and will therefore simply dump kde when
they no longer have kde3 available, for something that actually works for
them, unlike kde4, which remains broken in a number of ways, at least as
shipped (thus my hacking...), unfortunately.
