	Yes there are a lot of things in kde4 that are big disappointments from a \
configuration standpoint. Instead of being able to set icon size in px, now your only \
choices are small, medium and large (would you like fries with that too?)

	That's but one example. Another is this MB MiB issue. Why don't I have to option to \
configure this? KDE has always been about the users ability to customize the desktop \
to their liking and their needs. For you devs working on these issues, please \
remember that. We don't want and one-size-fits-all desktop. If I did, I'd use gnome. \
I want the options to configure the display pretty much to the same level I can in \
kde3. Nothing more or special.
