KDE Built For Speed -- Vector Linux 5.8 SOHO

,----[ Quote ]
| I never imagined KDE could run smoothly or quickly on my laptop. Every 
| other Linux distribution I’ve tried gave me sluggish performance and 
| forced me to look at lightweight desktop environments like Xfce. Vector 
| Linux offers speed and stability combined with a KDE desktop and user 
| friendly tools. Is Vector Linux 5.8 SOHO perfect? Heck, no! There are 
| some caveats, especially for new users, and I’ve done my best to lay 
| those out. For the experienced user or the new user who isn’t afraid 
| to ask questions I don’t think you can find a better Linux 
| full-featured distribution than Vector Linux 5.8 SOHO. You 
| certainly can’t find a faster one.

KDE 4: the ultimate business desktop?

| be the most business-friendly open source desktop to date with a
| host of new features ideal for enterprises.

| Rodda is also bullish about KDE 4's ability to attract more commercial ISVs
| to port applications to the environment, primarily because of the
| multi-platform capability that comes with using Qt 4.
