"Just because KDE has been designed to be portable across Linux, FreeBSD and other UNIX/X11 environments for an age now, doesn't mean we aren't up for the occasional challenge. With version 4, Trolltech released Qt for the Mac, Windows and now even embedded environments under the GPL. Since Qt is the base upon which KDE is developed, KDE is now free to offer native support for these platforms. Today I am focusing on the KDE/Mac developments for KDE 4."

More options for us MacOS X users. Now we can freely roam between MacOS X apps, open source native apps (NeoOffice, AbiWordm, NVU), open source X11 apps, open source KDE apps, Windows apps through Darwine, CrossOver or Paralells/VM Ware.
All of that has been possible for quite some time, though ~ I thought.
At my place, OS X (ppc arch) now runs NeoOffice, OpenOffice, X11, MPlayer, RasMol, Gnome (occasionally; a little slow on the G4 
) and one or two other FOSS apps but I forgot their names.

Great,

Frickin excellent.
