Do let us know how you get on with KED 4 - I've been awfully tempted BUT really need to know that it's stable.

Quite possibly, at least there is a choice though.

While we're talking about PCLinuxOS, has anyone had a look at KDE4 yet?

I've downloaded a special KDE4 version of the Kubuntu 7.10 Live CD and

I'm installing it now on my spare hard drive to give it a good looking over.
