Opera, Amarok, K3B, Qalculate, Quanta Plus, Koffice 1.5, Kaffeine, Konsole, Kate/Kdevelop, KPatience. I could keep going... anyways... I came to KDE in a round about way, my general path looks something like this: Apple IIgs --> DOS/Win3.x/Win9x/WinNT --> RadHat 5 --> SuSE --> Win2k --> Linux --> Gnome/FreeBSD 4.7 --> XFCE/FreeBSD --> KDE/FreeBSD 5.3+/6.x. I should also add that I regularly use Mac OS X by choice at work. I think the best suggestion I can offer you is to try everything. -- BSD Podcasts @: http://bsdtalk.blogspot.com/ http://freebsdforall.blogspot.com/
