While KDE4 has definitely improved, and in fact several components are now
quite usable and sometimes even better than their TDE counterparts, the
overall usability of the KDE workspace still seems suboptimal to me.

I am currently looking into methods of using the improved KDE4 components
to enhance portions of TDE (e.g. Konqueror) while keeping the same
stability and usability we currently have.  Stay tuned. :-)
