same. I'm just not sold on the idea of having desktop + shell by SuperKaramba.

I try it out once in a while, but I don't feel comfortable there. I'm riding KDE3 into the ground, until it is no longer in Debian Stable (maybe Old Stable) though that means I am using a non maintained, non updated desktop, not to mention it makes it a little hard to get updated packages for other things if I am stuck with Stable. Which is basically why, as I have detailed before, I don't use Linux as much anymore. For me personally, KDE4 has been a disaster.

You do realise you can have the traditional KDE3 style desktop on KDE4.
It's an option in the Desktop Control Panel applet.
In fact, it literally only takes 3 mouse button clicks to switch between widget mode and icon/folder mode
