Hi everyone!
Once again, Trinity is awesome!

I remember the first time when I tried XFCE, probably in 2007, I decided to not use it because it took the same time as KDE3 to start, but with less features and I would miss my much-loved KDE/TDE apps like Amarok, KPDF, Dolphin and K3b.

Tim, I will give 50$ to the TDE project when R14 will be released with PCLinuxOS packages. You can even note that somewhere! I will also release my PCLOS non-official TDE remaster soon after, this time with a Zenity script to switch between the classic vanilla TDE theme and the more modern theme I use, so it could please more users.

Have a nice day!
