Well, I for one would like to thank you and the KDE development team for
producing KDE and Konqueror. I have had to switch temporarily to Firefox
from Konqueror because of problems with KDE on OpenBSD on 4.3. Having
used both Firefox 2 and 3, I can assure you, that while Firefox is not
bad, Konqueror is my favorite browser by a long shot. I'm looking
forward to using KDE4.

Thanks Again for all your Great Work!
