Re: Embedding external parts into KDE
by Dom on Thursday 21/Dec/2000, @09:13
I don't want to flame, but rather alleviate ignorance here.

Gnome has:
* Galeon - Kickass web browser using GtkMozEmbed
* Nautilus - already fully usable and able to give Konqueror more than a run for its money
* Bonobo - a lot more sophisticated embedding framework than KParts (minus the recent X-Parts extension) or OLE2 for that matter
* Themes - on the GTK level and soon Gnome-wide
* Gnome Office - AbiWord and Gnumeric simply kick ass. And AbiWord is about to get a KDE port too.

I won't even go into how WinME compares, because you'll dislike that even more... KDE2 kicks some major ass. But I wouldn't discount Gnome or Windows as easily as you do.

Gnome, Windows and KDE each have strong points, and there's a whole lot of cool code in Gnome. My intention wasn't to bash Gnome (or Windows for that matter - I agree that it probably has the best UI of the bunch today). The point I was trying to make is that the rate of progress of KDE is absolutly astounding..
