If I want to set up a network and share it now I have to go through all kinds of hoops, for instance. This should be integrated 100% into KDE's interface.
Oddly enough, that's exactly what David says he's working on, in the interview. You did read all of the interview, right?
there millions of software included and installed in linux, but u do get no movie player.. isn't that funny
That, I would (more than) venture to guess, is a problem with your ditribution, not KDE. Because *I* have a plethora of movie players available to me. Everything from xanim/aktion, to mplayer, aviplay, xine, noatun, crossover (for quicktime/sorenson), to various gnome apps (that I don't remember the name of). So, to sum up, if you don't get a single one of those shipped with your ditro, or at least no easy way to install them, then I suggest finding a different one (I personally like debian, but YMMV).
