And I assume that you never really administrated a Windoze PC.

KDE4 was the reason why I switched to Xfce. And, yes, I tried KDE4. But Gnome and KDE4 are just optional, systemd is meant as the new init system. That's a big difference. If this all was only about an optional piece of software I wouldn't say anything. I just wouldn't use it. Heiko
