Is it Windows 7 or KDE 4? In this video, we take to Sydney's streets to

Key word, Demonstration. They weren't allowed to use it themselves or the
jig would have been up.
They showed them a small subset of apps that had nice chrome, and they
clearly knew how to use it, so it looked "easy" to them because they
weren't the ones driving it.
They got similar reactions from the Windows Mojave experiment.
Ya know what would piss me off? If I were a Lay person who saw a KDE4
demo masquerading as Windows 7, and knowing no better, went and bought
W7 when it went Gold. Imagine the disappointment when I see the product
is nothing, nowhere near what KDE4 /has now/ as opposed what W7 /could
have in five years or so/?
