openSUSE is the only distro. that will have (on the DVD release) on the
upcoming 11.1 release, next week, under "option" to install with KDE
3.5.10.* simply because what users want in 4.1 isn't in it yet, but
expected in 4.2. From what I can see, KDE 4 WILL be faster and feature
rich, once all the features have been backportred to it, and apps. the same.
