Re: Ubuntu-Kubuntu-Ubuntu?
Do you have a capability to "try before you buy"? Like VMware Player, or a spare 8GB partition on your hard drive? Desktop environments are really a matter of taste, and there's no way anyone else can know how you'll like KDE. If you could do a clean installation of Kubuntu on a trial basis, then you could play with it and decide if you want it permanently, or not.
