For me the main reason is that KDE-3.5 starts faster and uses less memory. Furthermore most QT-4 styles are *really* slow on the machines i own (intel/amd/nvidia GPUs), compared to the snappy QT-3 apps. Especially resizing larger KDE4/QT4 apps is slow (even without desktop effects). Currently I use the Windows style when I use KDE4. - Clemens ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.
