i am not refuting you i beleive youre right
Well, this is really getting offtopic, but he isn't.
For example Novell and Mandriva are employing several KDE constributors.
Canonical, Linspire, Xandros, etc. are sponsoring KDE events and participation of KDE contributors at other events.

why do you believe that commercial distros dont put resources into kde.
i am not refuting you i beleive youre right- i m just curious as to the reason
It's all because of Qt. Novell, RedHat, and Sun don't want to have Trolltech controlling everything at the core of a desktop system. They don't want their customers held hostage to a Trolltech tax if they're releasing stuff that isn't GPL-compatible.
