That is definitely a great article.  Very objective in the
criticisms and praises, author explains his background/biases,
admits to not being an expert, addresses the novice concerns.

I haven't used KDE for >2 years, maybe it's time to check it out
again.  This also reinforces my devious notion to get my wife on
a Unix box via Mac, then after that who knows....
