I don't think you need wait until the weekend to log in via KDM. It will take 
you under 5 minutes. Just make sure you have kde installed, so do a yum 
whatever is required. Basically, get all of the kde packages and the language 
modules you want (for english only, you don't need any) and you're done.

The only actual work is the following. Into /etc/sysconfig/desktop you put 
these lines:

DESKTOP="KDE"
DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE"

That's it!

You can update to Rex' kde on the weekend. It seems to update seamlessly.
