KDE SC 4: The good, the bad, and the broken

Thanks for this info - I will try this as soon as I can (right now, no KDE 4 system under my hands). Although this shows clearly one question that will certainly come up: "If there is a possibility to switch back to old behaviour, why is then introduced the new one?". Yep, this is a question with many aspects, but think of it from the following point of view: I want to explain people that switching to KDE SC 4 is a good thing, so I should be able to explain the benefits of the new technology.

Greets,
Michael
