Well, when I stepped from dos 6.22 to Windows 95 on my 486, the latter was 
really slow and bloated... This was the same reason that prevented me from 
switching windows 98 with XP, some years later, and made me jump the 
barricade. Surely I never had an up-to-date machine, nor I have now, still KDE 
runs fine even if not excellent. But I get a good feel of speed with kde apps 
and fluxbox.

ciao!
