Um, you _are_ blind...

...Either that, or you didn't read the *entirety* of the KDE general overview, and dealt with Underthumb's quote completely out-of-context as a result.

You wrote, "Ok, call me blind but nowhere does this mention LINUX or LINUX distributions."

From http://www.kde.org/whatiskde/index.html :

"Without UNIX the internet would not be. But UNIX did not address the needs of the average computer user. This fact is particularly unfortunate since a number of implementations of UNIX ( Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD etc.) are freely available
on the internet. All of which are of exceptional quality and stability."

The bottom line analysis here is that the KDE general overview is clearly grouping *all* of the Unix implementations together when they use the word "UNIX," and Linux was even specifically listed in this grouping.

So yes, it does, in fact, quite clearly mention Linux. Specifically, even.

"Warlord and Undethumb can quit whining right now, before I send a pound of cheese to both of your houses."

Typical. Unable to address the issues at hand, you reduce valid points to "whining".
