    Yes, I read that article earlier and came to the same conclusions.

    Polishing KDE software was a central theme of Sunday's keynote address. Given by long-time KDE developer and evangelist Aaron Seigo, this talk focused on the successes of and challenges for KDE. He said KDE had enjoyed a great year and listed a number of its successes. These included retaining a deployment of 50 million school desktops in Brazil and gaining several hundred thousand additional deployments in universities.

    Deployment of KDE desktops in Portugal has almost doubled from four to seven hundred thousand laptops. There are a million KDE deployments in Venezuela and KDE software is used on 11,000 computers in German embassies worldwide.
    I doubt that Linux shares 1% or 2% of PC market share worldwide. I'm sure (or I'd be pretty sure that) many of those PC's mentioned in that article use Linux and not Windows as their OS.

    Interesting reading. Well, "life is change" isn't it? As long as I can use a keyboard as an interface, I think I can adapt to whatever comes after KDE 4.
