If anything, Mint running Gnome would be a better fit as it has a Windows like start menu. RobI haven't looked at KDE 4 yet. I am looking at Lucid Ubuntu at the moment. It just confirms for me how much I hate Gnome. I also run Mint on my laptop, Xfce version. I am really getting to like it. So Mint running Xfce rather than Gnome (yuk). That would be successful IMHO for a newcomer to Linux. Just my two-pennyworth, Neil
I'm under the impression that Kubuntu 10.04 has only got KDE 4. Rob -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
