My first thought was that this was an April Fool's joke, but as it turns out, this is real (I actually downloaded and tested it). The openSUSE KDE team has created a KDE 2.2.2 live CD using openSUSE 11.1 as a base. It boots like any other live CD, but instead of the latest and greatest KDE 3.x or 4.x desktop, you're presented with a fully functional KDE 2.2.2 desktop. That sure brought back some memories!

OMG, this made me almost cry. However, this is pretty usable and stable desktop, which I remember using and laughing at Gnome 1.4 users... KDE ROCKED, in some way it still does, but there's something broken about it, and I think it's development process (a few articles before is comparison KDE4/Gnome dev process).
I used to use kde 1.x line as well, remember kde 2 being best thing since sliced bread on Mandriva 7.2... I'm old.
