I used to love Ubuntu. It was a damn good disto as a beginner. It's still a good system for those who are not intrested in programming. But for is it's very lightweight. Not even comparable to Debian.
But i like that folks at Ubuntu. They made something new, something damn good. If there weren't Ubuntu, there would less Linux users. Many of us evolved from Ubuntu users.
I like those folks. But there are also idiots.
A few days ago, i was searching for Linspire. I checked out Wikipedia, it said it's Debian based (that is the truth btw). I found a cool little app, LSongs. I checked Wikipedia again. Well, there, Linspire was Kubuntu based. Wow. Okay, it was 1:1. I wanted to find out what is the truth. So i navigated to Linspire's official website. Debian based. Okay, I changed at LSongs wiki page Kubuntu to Debian. I checked the history of page edits. Well, some
smart Kubuntu developer changed it. Shame.
Btw,
Freespire is based on Ubuntu and it uses KDE. But Linspire is still based on Debian.
I still love Ubuntu folks, Launchpad and other Ubuntu related things (getdeb.net and fullcircle), but i hate Kubuntu. I never liked it really. Only because it uses KDE, and current KDE (3.5.8) is garbage. Sorry. I hate it. It's ugly and complicated. I think KDE 4 will be better, I may give it a shot but I'm loyal to GNOME, and I like it very much. It's the best desktop enviroment, better than any other. I hope after KDE 4 we will get updates (we must, or we will lose lot of GNOME users, probably lot od newbies).
What is the difference between GNOME and KDE? The same as for Xp and Vista. Usability vs. eye candy. I vote for usability.
No, not for self torturing (ION)

All KDE users: Hate me

All ION/IceWM/XFce/E17 users: sorry.
All GNOME users: let's make the best even better. Use GTK insted of QT, make themes for Metacity insted of KWin.
Wow. I wanted to write about that Kubuntu guy, but I wrote about hating KDE. LOL.
Chuck Norris would use GNOME
