I think Duncan is onto something big with KDE promotion.  My previous attempt 
to get people to use KDE was to install a distribution like Mandrake, SUSE, 
Redhat, or name-your-favorite-distro.  I didn't get much response ... and 
when I followed up on those people I gave Mandrake CD to, they said they 
didn't have time to install it, and some I saw them putting my Mandrake CD on 
the wall of their cube to make it look pretty *grin*.  I made a second 
attempt just a few days ago with eadz's KnoppixKDE CD.  This time around, all 
of them gave me a response!  And the response was "Wow", "How much?", 
"Free?", "I'm amazed", "Great rescue CD", "How does this free software 
development work?".  I get a kick seeing all these people eyes dilating. :) 
They think it's a miracle!

I would be happy to donate to a KnoppixKDE CD fund, but would like it to be 
distributed in a most effective manner.
