I mean I once heard it like this: Kinetic Desktop Enviroment, I think that's really cool, KDE sure is dynamic and fast! (could be a lot faster though =p) Or maybe its for Kool Desktop Enviroment, I heard that too, and its definetely true. I also heard it called the Kind Desktop Enviroment since its kind to new users and has a kind community =) The last one was Korean Desktop Enviroment, but I'm almost positive that was made up by that zealous linux Korean site I visited by accident. I heard it called Krappy Desktop Enviroment in a message board on a GNOME topic once, but that can't be it google says KDE is the best. Type in: best desktop environment? and KDE comes up, that's how I know its the best. Someone just said it was because K was before L and I don't really know what that would mean, amybe that KDE runs on top of linux. But, I really hope that's not why because G comes before K and that would make GNOME better. Others say its the karbon, Kilobyte, Kindergarden?!! Karat and someone said it was Kevin's Desktop Enviroment... odd the guy was named Kevin too. CAN SOMEONE SERIOUSLY ANSWER THIS QUESTION!! THIS HAS BEEN PUZZLING BE FOR... MINUTES!!!!
