  LinuxQuestions Members Choice Awards: KDE Kleans Up
KDE Success Story Posted by Dre on Tuesday 12/Mar/2002, @12:50
from the somebody-pinch-me dept.
LinuxQuestions.org has concluded a vote on the Linux desktop, and KDE has once again had a great showing. It came in first in the Desktop Environment of the Year category with almost 69% of the votes. In addition, KDE standouts Konqueror tied with Mozilla (22%) as Browser of the year; KMail took top honors as Mail Client of the Year (beating Evolution by a large margin); and KOffice earned second place (substantially behind StarOffice) as Office Suite of the Year. Check out the complete results.

Way to go KDE developers and users. I've believed that KDE was approaching 70% of the Linux Desktop market for almost a year now. Except now more people are starting to finally realize it. To say so know is not seen as flame bait anymore.

That, or...

Or maybe KDE users have more Linux questions than GNOME users, which would be a bad sign. Can't blame our documentators though, they've been doing a great job.

But seriously, those are nice numbers. They don't mean a lot, but nice.

well, from my experience of the site, it's just that most people that go there don't know gnome even exists, let alone blackbox et al. everyone knows kde is icky in the real world ;-)
