Reviews of KDE 4.3

,----[ Quote ]
| Besides these reviews you can find buzz surrounding KDE all around the web. 
| Even the more cynical begin to see and appreciate the vision behind the KDE 4 
| series. Our community, from developers to artists to those members helping 
| out fellow users on IRC or forums, has reason to be proud on the 
| accomplishment which is KDE 4.3. As SoftVision said, "To infinity, and 
| beyond!"

MediaCenter again!

| The Plasmediacenter Shell: this is a stand-alone application that can be 
| freely used instead of putting the containment and the applets on your 
| screen :) . The Plasmediacenter can be set fullscreen so that also the 
| playback controls still remain over the mediaplayer applet.

Linux distro mints "Gloria" KDE release

,----[ Quote ]
| For those interested in a non-Linuxer point of view, Bruno Dieter Chan offers
| his thoughts in a July 28 review on TopTechNews, and they are, well,
| luke-warm. After praising the distro for playing all his multimedia files,
| for offering a good web-browsing experience, and for providing reasonably
| fast 30-second boots, the complaints kick in.
|
| The reviewer was disappointed in the lack of QuickTime support, as well as
| some movie "shudder" effects when he tried to use "restricted drivers for my
| ATI 4850 graphics card." He also groused over having to download a driver for
| his Creative X-Fi card, and then noted that it output audio through the
| motherboard instead of the X-Fi's jack. Also, apparently, Mint 7 didn't
| support plug-and-play with his Canon A400 or fully support his Sansa player.
|
| "Overall, Mint 7 offers most of the software that an average user needs,"
| concludes Chan. "Though I have issues with the OS, it still can be used as
| a 'light' desktop OS. But if you're going to do more than just Web browsing,
| then it would be better to stick with Mac OS or Windows."

Linux Mint 7 KDE

,----[ Quote ]
| All in all, Linux Mint is a fusion between the usability and tools of Linux
| Mint with the elegance of the KDE desktop. Iâm not a great fan of KDE, but
| the Linux Mint tools certainly help to put this distro above the rest.
