KDE::Enterprise has a new interview with Andrew Hatfield of SecureONE about the popular K Desktop Environment (KDE). “KDE is our desktop of choice for development, webdesign and support. We still use Windows2000, however, we like and try to spend most of our time in Linux 'mode.'”
“KDE offers our organization a cheap, functional, stable, reliable and pretty desktop interface.” “KDE offers a lower total cost of ownership to rivals such as Windows2000. Whilst Windows2000 has made enourmous inroads into usability, stability and remote configuration - it is still expensive upfront and in support costs. Also, the hardware required to run Windows2000 effeciently is higher than KDE and Linux's requirements. “
