X11, Window Managers In 2002, both KDE and GNOME released their last major revisions; KDE released KDE 3.0 on 3rd April, while GNOME followed shortly after with GNOME 2.0 on 27th June. For the Linux desktop, therefore, 2002 was an important year. Since then, we have continiously been fed point releases which added bits of functionaility and speed improvements, but no major revision has yet seen the light of day. What's going on?

"while also increasing the speed [3] of the desktop with every release. "

I'm sorry but that's simply not true. They haven't catched up the overall speed and reactivity of gnome 1.4 on a pIII 500 mhz with gnome2.X on any 2 or 3ghz machine I have used.
