I much prefer KDE so I tried Kubuntu 8.04. I like it ok but PCLinuxOS
runs faster on the same hardware (933 MHz P3 in this instance). I don't
think it would matter as much on a 1.5 GHz or faster machine but, on the
other hand, PCLinuxOS uses Synaptic, which I like, while Kubuntu uses
Aptitude which I don't especially like. I find that a little ironic
when you consider that Kubuntu is a part of Debian's "extended family"
while PCLinuxOS is not. Go figure. I'll add that Linux Mint seems
awfully nice but is slower still (on the same hardware).
