Sorry, this sort of response really pisses me off. If you expect users to take \
UNIX/Linux the way it is, you should throw away 90% of the KDE. 

You see, the goal of the KDE is to provide an interface into UNIX that is intuitive \
to humans in stead of computer scientists. Most humans have no idea what PDF and \
Postscript have to do with printing. That's why we cannot assume users to know that \
creating a PDF and printing a document are related in any way.

Note that I don't say that most computer scientists aren't human but that most humans \
aren't computer scientists.  :) That's why KDE exists. \
