After having used it for six weeks, my opinion is mixed. It has nice features, especially the new KDE. The bad thing is that some applications will occasionally act squirrelly -- you try to do something and it just won't respond, or does something else than what you intended. Kword takes almost 30 seconds to load a file, which is grossly slow IMHO. Launching applications also takes a very long time. Maybe it is the limitations of my 500 MHz mobo and 256 MB ram. I think I'll be going back to 7.2, as it ran nice and smooth. Bells and whistles are nice if they work. Gary Hildebrand St. Joseph
