In KDE4: is it usable for you?, amantia explores the current state of the beta 3 kde 4 release. This thing is 2 months from release, and apparently is still having quite a few issues.Having said that, the screenshots and shouting that I've heard regarding the latest release do leave me with a little more optimism than in the past. Hopefully these things will be sorted out and we will see a solid kde 4 release in time for the super bowl.
