Calm down man, stop annoying people..

I've installed KDE2 (and 2.0.1 and 2.1.0 cvs here at home) on the following 
computers:
2x friends after installing Linux Mandrake 7.2 (2.0.0 and 2.0.1, both from 
rpms)
1x friend after installing Red Hat Linux 7.0 (2.0.1 rpms)
3x office, running Linux Mandrake 7.1 (2.0.0 and 2.0.1, compiled from source 
and installed from rpm)
2x private pc's at my home, both I update weekly with the latest cvs of 2.1.0

I have just ONCE experienced KDE to be buggy all over, and that was in the 
cvs a couple of weeks ago.  All the other times, and the other computers have 
had NO problems what so ever, and my friends are giving positive feedback all 
the time on the stability and usability of KDE2.

If you're having problems with everything crashing, but you can't/won't give 
us an accurate bug-report, what leads you to think that this has to be KDE, 
it could be your X-server or similar.

KDE2 is, at least to my experience (which is starting to be a quite 
comprehensive one), is a great DE.  It's stable, fast, effiecient and the 
usability is great.  Also it's free and opensourced, something that makes it 
easier to give an accurate feedback if something should be wrong.

I can't imagine what possesed you to write such a non-realistic mail to the 
list, don't get me wrong, if someone doesn't like KDE because of taste, then 
that's okay, we all have different tastes.  And if someone doesn't like KDE 
because they mean it's unstable, then as long as they give an accurate 
feedback of what is unstable and in what circumstances (bugreport-dialog 
which easlily pops up if something goes wrong) this happen, then that's okay 
too.  But when someone comes throwing stuff without anything to back it up 
with, then I just call it a Stallman and try to not get irritated (something 
that in some cases isn't exactly easy).

Go back to Windows, it sounds like you belong there, you said yourself that 
it didn't work for you, so stop complaining and do what you said you were 
going to do (I notice from your mail that you are in fact still running Linux 
even after claiming that you were on your way to removing it and installing 
Windows.. stick to what you say ;).

I must say that I'm not a programmer, I'm just a normal end-user who have 
found a new love in KDE2 :)

Ps. and yes I'm cc'ing you this mail, you've irritated me so much now that I 
can't see the harm in me doing so...
